2021 ACU Road Race Courses
The dates for the ThundersportGB ACU Road Race Licence Courses for the 2021 season have now also been set.
CTC - Theory Courses.
There will be 3 separate theory courses, 2 by Zoom for easier compliance with Social Distancing and 1 face to face (adhering to prevailing restrictions) for those unable to manage a Zoom course.
Saturday 20th February - @ 7.00pm ( Zoom Meeting for new solo riders )
Saturday 27th February - @ 7.00pm (In person at Donington Park for new solo riders)
Saturday 13th March - @ 7.00pm (Zoom Meeting for lapsed licence holders and new sidecar passengers)
The first 2 above are primarily aimed at ThundersportGB riders taking the Basic Rider Assessment Course at Donington Park on Sunday 28th February.
The face to face course will be held under whatever Social Distancing Regulations are in place at the time and may therefore be restricted on numbers.
Although the Zoom courses have a maximum capacity of 100 participants each, we aim to restrict each to 50 new riders to enable proper monitoring of attendance and allow our instructors and other officials to sit in.
The 3rd course is aimed at lapsed licence holders or new sidecar passengers and will have more emphasis on rule updates over the past 10 years, as well as containing the basic course work
This course will be restricted to 25 participants.
BRA - On Track Riding Assessment.
Sunday 28th February - @ Donington Park.
This course will conclude the work started on theory courses 1 & 2 above and will consist of:
45 minutes of on track assessment/instruction.
Practice race assembly, formation laps and race start.
The CTC Theory Courses will each cost £40 as stand alone bookings
The BRA Practical Course will cost £140 as a stand alone, or can be booked with the CTC as a package for £175.
Eyesight Reports will be available by prior booking at Donington Park on Sunday 28th February at a cost of £10 in addition to the normal course bookings.
The Booking Forms for all of the above will be live on the ThundersportGB website in the Document Centre from Friday 4th December 2020.
Once the ACU Courses are successfully completed it will be possible for new riders to test at Donington Park for the remainder of the day at additional cost (see above).
You will automatically be alerted when the testing bookings go live if you are booked onto a course.
We hope this new adventure of motorcycle racing exceeds your best expectations, as it has for so many before you.
Kind Regards
Dave, Bernadette, Syd, Janet & the whole Thundersport Team
