Learn to race street bikes

Ever wanted to feel the roar of a big bike between your legs?

Ever wanted to know what it would be like to race, but didn't want to shell out for a racing bike?

Then Paul DeCouto has the answer for you.

Several members of the Bermuda Motorcycle Raccing Club are going down to Miami from December 8 to 14 to go to a training school to hone their skills.

DeCouto said: "This year we have a spot that's opened up so that if there was anyone interested they could contact me to go."

DeCouto said this would be a cheaper way for a person to see if bike racing is for them rather than to go out and purchase a bike and then find out they didn't like it.

All the equipment will be provided at the raceway. He said costs attached to participating would be a plane ticket (around $765), school and bike rental ($1,000) and hotel cost ($59 a night).

The Bermudians will be racing on Ducati 900s.

If you're interested, you may contact DeCouto at 505-7109 or e-mail him at [email protected].[[In-content Ad]]
