The Texas Tornado Boot Camp tours

 
 

In 2012 we are doing two guided tours to the Camp:


2-5 August 2012: Following Laguna Seca MotoGP (read on)

9-12 August 2012: Preceding Indianapolis MotoGP more...


POST LAGUNA SECA TOUR 2-5 August 2012


The Laguna Seca MotoGP is one of our top events of the year, with several hospitalities, special guests, opportunities for track laps and much more. See our web site for more details.


However if you are hungry for more, here is our suggestion:


We fly you from California to Houston then take you to the camp. Two exciting options:


Option 1:
Enjoy California. Spend Monday - Thursday enjoying the Monterey or San Francisco Bay area.  We can organise a private tour for you or rent motorcycles. On Thursday 2/Aug we fly you from either Monterey or San Francisco to Houston then take you up to the Boot Camp!


Option 2: The Texas Two Wheeled Tour. Fly with us on Monday 30/July from Monterey to Houston; where we collect some classic American machinery (Harley Davidson Road Kings or similar) with helmets and all gear, and spend three days touring the stunning East Texas hill country. On Thursday after returning the bikes we take you to the camp.


For both options you will enjoy:

  1. One way flights from either Monterey or San Francisco

  2. Transfers to and from Houston

  3. 3 nights B&B at the Camp

  4. Extensive personal instruction on race-prepped Yamaha TTR 110, 125 and 230s

  5. Riding gear and safety equipment

  6. All food & refreshments. 

  7. Optional activities (paint ball, firearms, Go Karts, table tennis, pool and of course the tavern...)

  8. Pole Position Travel guide/assistant (in addition to Camp staff)


Standard accommodation at the camp is in a shared bunk house. Some private/VIP rooms are available, capable of sleeping up to 4 people.


The optional riding tour is ‘self guided’ - we provide bikes, gear, accommodation and directions; you can choose your own routes/follow your nose!

Included:

  1. Transfers to/from rental location

  2. 3 day rental of Harley Davidson

  3. 3 nights accommodation with breakfast

  4. Maps and information

  5. 24hr cell phone access to our staff


If we have sufficient numbers, a guide will be included. Additional luggage may be stored at the rental location or securely in our van.
