Intermediate Group Rules

Intermediate Group group is less supervised and structured than the Novice group. Instructors observe riding ability and encourage faster or slower riders to move up or down a group. Passing is allowed everywhere except the inside of corners. The structure of this group may change to more closely resemble either the Advanced or Beginner group, depending on the group’s overall riding ability.

On track time: Every group gets 20 minutes on the track per hour and up to 140 minutes per day. Intermediate group starts at the middle of the hour. ex. 8:20-8:40, 9:20-9:40 etc etc. With the exception of the first orientation lap, and unforeseen accidents we stick to this timeframe. You're able to enter the track at any point during your 20 minutes, but you must exit the track when the checkered flag waves.
