Please be aware of the following policies regarding your Phillip Island Ride Day.

2) All riders must ensure they book the correct group for their riding ability. If we find riders booked in the incorrect group for their riding ability, they may be forced to sit out sessions awaiting possible availability in the correct riding group. This will be strictly enforced. If you are too fast or too slow for your group you may be asked to sit out until a position becomes available in the most applicable group.
