The TRACK EXPERIENCE, the only paid activity, proved once again to be the most exclusive and adrenaline-filled area of the second edition of the EICMA RIDING FEST. It was designed for riders eager to test sport models from participating brands on the Misano World Circuit International Track.
Track sessions and bikes could be reserved via a dedicated platform developed by EICMA, allowing users to book up to 3 sessions across the event days. Each session cost €40, with all proceeds donated to charity projects.
Participation was strictly reserved for those with appropriate technical gear (leather suit—either full or two-piece connected by a zipper, full-face helmet with double D-ring strap, back protector, track boots, and leather gloves). Changing rooms were available in the paddock.
Access to the track required a valid A3 license. Participants were divided into two categories based on experience: BEGINNER/AMATEUR and EXPERIENCED.
Each session included 4 laps on the International Circuit—launch and cool-down laps included—with two passes on the main straight behind a lead rider, for a total duration of about 15 minutes.
Dangerous or inappropriate behavior was strictly prohibited and resulted in immediate exclusion from the event without a refund.
Participating brands included: Kawasaki, Honda, Triumph, Yamaha, Ducati, and BMW.
