On a motorbike? OK, some two-wheel specific things to be aware of. The road has camber (higher in the center, lower to the sides) so water will run off. In the right-hand world, that means you have a banked curve when you curve or turn right, and reverse-banked for the left. End result: you'll find yourself going into right-handers way too hot. If you can, stand the bike up and use the binders. If there isn't room for that, just keep leaning. If you haven't spent much time on the track, you'll be amazed at how far over you can go. No promises, but you can most likely get more out of that bike than you expect.

You'll also go into left handers too slow, but other than being slow, that's fine.

And if you like the challenge of reverse-banked turns, check out your local track once you get home. Tracks are designed to make it hard to go fast, and this is one of the tricks the designers use.

The first time I was in NZ (perfect place for a bike holiday) there was a Vincent on about every corner. Having worked in a Vincent shop, I knew how rare / expensive they were in the US. Thought I might find a bargain and ship it home. Turns out there was a world-wide get-together of Vincent folks in NZ that year...
