From the brand new superbike, to the 10 year project bike you finally got together, we welcome a wide range of machinery to our events each year. What all bikes that join our events must have in common is their mechanical soundness. Nothing ruins your day, or everyone else’s, faster then a neglected or ill-prepared machine.

Each rider is required to complete a safety inspection of their machine(s) which they intend to ride on track prior to be permitted to ride for the day. Riders riding multiple days in a row are not required to complete the inspection each day, just on the first day. All riders who crash are required to re-inspect before going back on track. Our inspection is an oversight inspection to visually assess if your bike meets our requirements to join the event.  It is not intended to replace regular maintenance, service or diagnose issues to be repaired trackside. It is mutually understood that the rider has shown up with a machine that is safe and prepared.

All riders are expected to arrive with a bike that is clean, well maintained and in close-to perfect working order.

• Tires and brakes must be in good condition and have enough “meat” to get through the day. There will be on site Dunlop tire service at each trackday, allowing for the opportunity to install replacement tires to pass safety inspection but, it is strongly recommended that you arrive with tires not in questionable shape.

Brake pads must have minimum of  %50 wear remaining, lever must have good feel and not meet the bar when squeezed hard, Brake lines must be free from wear and routed cleanly free from binding or interference with other components, and the system free from leaks.

• Every rider is expected to thoroughly go over their machine to ensure it is mechanically sound and safe to ride on track prior to attending the event. If the rider is not mechanically inclined, they should have a licensed repair shop inspect the machine and make any recommended repairs before the event.

Numbers must be a minimum of 5" in height and be clearly displayed on the FRONT and BOTH SIDES (upper side fairing or side of lower fairing) of your bike. Older style/Large tail sections that can accommodate a 5" number on both sides are also acceptable. Any modern tail sections that cannot accommodate two sets of numbers must have the numbers clearly displayed on either side of the machine.

Pro 6 Cycle VIP events operate at select days during the season. Many elements are the same as our regular events except for a few special qualities:

This means that you have done enough events with us that we know your name, how you ride, and that you are a safe and skilled enough rider to blend into the day. Riders who do not meet these criteria are still welcome to contact us if they wish to participate but must provide a reference from other reputable organizations.
• Riders must also be experienced “Red” or “Yellow” group riders and must meet or ride below a certain lap time which will be deemed appropriate by Pro 6 Cycle staff. Please include an average lap time at the track in which you are requesting to participate at within your email request.
• Riders must have ridden a minimum 5 trackdays at the specific track in which they wish to participate in the VIP, without incident; no crashes, black flags for conduct, etc., in addition to the above criteria.
• VIP days have Red group/open passing rules.
• Case covers are mandatory for VIP events for all participants.

Trackside emergency medical service and marshaling are a standard inclusion.

Trackside tire service by Pro 6 Cycle, suspension service by Propulsion Racing, and any other trackside special event service provided by Pro 6 Cycle and its partners are also available to the client.

Each season for the past 10 years we have started off with our 2 day TRAC School at Calabogie. for 2026, the TRAC school will take place May 23 and 24. 

Run once a year, this program has sold out each season since it’s launch. Whether you are a seasoned trackday rider looking for a few seconds, a first time rider to Calabogie, or an aspiring racer looking for tips and tricks for Canada’s best, we take great care to match each student and coach not only based on their on track goals, but their personalities to ensure a great time had by all.

Our innovative program will combine a detailed theory segment with on track instruction in order to allow track riders and racers to get the most out of their machines and themselves. The two day courses will include an in depth analysis of the theory behind performance riding and racing.

We prefer a more intimate approach, with a 4:1 student/instructor ratio that focuses on applying the theory and techniques you learn off the track, on the track.
