A great fly-in, fly-out event. Weather is typically mild and comfortable.
Buttonwillow: The New Circuit — Single-Day Schools
March 28–29
A newly constructed Southern California track that’s already receiving rave reviews.
To reserve your spot, call the office at 800-530-3350 or sign up online.
Getting Back on the Bike After Winter
There’s nothing quite like the excitement that comes from riding on track. Carving through corners, opening the throttle, and feeling real acceleration in an environment designed for it brings a kind of focus and enjoyment that’s hard to match. For many riders, it’s a reset—an experience that feels like “real living,” not just working through life’s commitments.
- Why a School Experience Is So Transformative
A great school day combines several elements in the right balance:
- The freedom of the track in a controlled environment
- A structured plan that gives every session purpose
- The sensations of cornering, braking, and acceleration
- The discipline of a high-intensity sport that demands full attention
- A full team supporting the experience—from coaches to mechanics to student services
With roughly 24 staff supporting each event, the result is a well-run, high-value experience that makes it easy to focus on riding and improvement.

- How Different Is a School from a Track Day?
Track days are a great place to practice. A California Superbike School event is different in several important ways:
- Fewer riders on track, creating more space and less unpredictability
- Participants are there to improve skills, not compete for lap times
- A structured format creates a controlled, repeatable learning environment
- Bad habits get corrected rather than reinforced
- Each rider is assigned a dedicated coach all day for personalized guidance
- Strong camaraderie—everyone shares the same goal and progresses together
- Coaching is delivered by professionally trained instructors using a proven system
Fast and charismatic riders are impressive. But a professional coach with a structured method—focused on your goals—is what accelerates real progress.

- Family Trios at the Superbike School
We recently had two father/daughter/son trios at the school. It’s great to see family groups sharing enthusiasm and building memories through an experience like this.
