A Phillip Island Ride Day consists of 6 x 20 minute allocated riding sessions where you can spend quality time with your motorcycle in a controlled and supervised setting, which also happens to be one of the most thrilling pieces of asphalt in the world! Riding groups are graded, meaning that you spend your time on track with riders of a similar skill/experience level. We also offer a First-timers Program which gives new track riders some extra support and initiation into what is likely to become their newfound addiction!

If the circuit is deemed a ‘wet track’ riders on slicks will not be allowed out. You will either need to change to treaded tyres or wait until the circuit is deemed dry again.

Garages will already be open upon your arrival at the circuit. Unless signed as being reserved, you may pit in any garage which is open. A Phillip Island Ride Days staff member will come to collect payment for the garage ($10 per bike) on the day.

Garages can be pre-booked and reserved prior to the event ($60 per garage). Please phone 1300 793 423 if you would like to pre-book your garage for the day.

Yes, you will be required to at least tape your mirrors; you can remove them if you choose. Don’t worry if you’re not able to do the taping yourself, we’ll do that for you at scrutineering. Please see the Motorcycle section of this website for a full list of bike requirements.

Of course! Phillip Island Ride Days are designed to be enjoyed by motorcycle enthusiasts, whether your passion lies in sports bikes, sports-tourers, pure tourers, cruisers, motards, historic bikes… whatever! Our sole purpose is to give you, the riding enthusiast, access to one of the greatest circuits in the world to explore the potential of your bike - whatever it may be.

No, tyres are required to meet the minimum tread depth (2mm above the wear indicator) both in the centre and on the sides.

No, however, there are fuel stations approximately ten minutes from the circuit towards the town centre of Cowes. If you are riding to the track it is recommended you fuel up just prior to arriving at the circuit so you can begin the day on a full tank. You will have time during the day to refuel if necessary.

The amount of fuel you’ll use is entirely dependent on the way you ride. You should arrive with a full tank and if possible bring a jerry can of extra fuel just to be on the safe side. Otherwise you will have time to refuel at a service station during the day if necessary.

No, lap timing and filming is strictly prohibited. Recording devices should be removed from your bike prior to arrival at the track.

No, the day does not stop for lunch however there is ample time between sessions for a lunch break.

It is recommended you arrive at or near 7.30am. This should give you time to sign on at Registrations and have your bike scrutineered before the compulsory Safety Briefing at 8.40am.

You should choose your riding group according to your level of riding and/or track experience. Detailed guidelines for group selection can be found in the Graded Groups section of this website. (Please note: under no circumstances should you select a riding group simply because it is the only group available. Booking into a group which is inappropriate for your riding ability can be dangerous and is considered a serious breach of Phillip Island Ride Days policies.)

You can request the Registration staff for a group swap throughout the day, however, this is subject to availability in the desired group. (Please be aware it is considered a serious breach of Phillip Island Ride Day policies for a participant to deliberately book into a group which is not suitable for his/her riding ability.)

We recommend The Waves which is located in Cowes, approximately ten minutes from the circuit. For more information, including contact details, visit Accommodation.
