Faster. Safer. Smarter.
The Penguin School, founded in 1973, is The Nation’s First Motorcycle Roadracing School. For over 41 years we have been dedicated to helping both street riders and experienced racers ride smarter, faster and with more confidence. The Penguin Difference • Highly Experienced Expert Instructors The Penguin Racing School is known for having top level instructors. A majority of PRS instructors are regional or national championship winning expert riders. Nowhere else can you find so many qualified, highly experienced riders who love to share their knowledge with students. • Detailed Analysis We have the tools to help you succeed. Track strategy and body positioning videos provide visual clarification of track lessons. Trackside observation and rider photo analysis allow you to track your individual progress. Also available is optional Video & GPS lap analysis. If you want to improve....we are here to help you do it. • Individual Tutoring and Bike Setup available Students in all groups are eligible to ride together with our top instructors in afternoon practice sessions. We also have the top local suspension tuners to help you with bike setup and get your motorcycle handling it’s very best. A Place for Everyone It does not matter if you are a first time track rider or an expert racer, there is a place for you. Track riding sessions are separated by level and everyone will be placed in a group that will give them the best opportunity to learn. • Learn without pressure as there is “no inside passing” in the Track Experience Course • All levels, students can ride at your own pace • Experienced racers ride in their own group Bike Preparation for the School Most bikes take only about a half hour to prepare. We recommend that you drain and flush the antifreeze and put in pure water. Remove the mirrors and tape over all lights. You must have good tires and the bike must be fluid tight and in good condition. Center and side stand removal is recommended but not required. Bike Preparation for Racing If you plan to race the weekend following the school, you should contact LRRS for a current CCS rule book: Call Brenda Leonard for CCS information at (603) 513-5734 or check www.ccsracing.us or www.lrrsracing.com Required Equipment Riders must have a full coverage Snell rated helmet that is less than 5 years old, leather boots, leather gloves, zip together leather jacket and pants or a full racing suit.

The race track is the safest place for you to go fast on your bike. However, motorcycle racing is dangerous! You participate in the school and ride “at your own risk”.
