This is an opportunity for Central States BMW and Euro riders to ride with

us. Nate really knows how to make a BMW or any bike go at any speed.

Come spend time with us at Mid American Motor Plex and explore what

you and your machine can do within the safety of a closed course with a

safety minded group.

Everybody goes the same way.

No trees, signs, poles, or dogs.

Control riders and instructors insure safe practices.

Strict rules tailored to your group level for your safety.

Same rules and approach that was used at last years KCBMW sport touring day and HPT

Instruction from the man. Nobody knows how to put it together on a BMW like Nate – nobody.

BRIAN DID IT!
Brian Thompson, our Sales Manager, Apparel Manager and Service Writer, as well as Rider Extraordinaire, ran his S1000RR at the MCRA Track Day at Gateway International Raceway in St. Louis. He smoked everyone on the straightaway, and put his knee down in quite a few corners. Way to Go, Brian. Watch out, Troy Corser!
