Select participants and date
You walk into the hall and the air smells faintly of rubber and electricity. A row of squat, three-wheeled machines hums like concentrated intent, their low profiles set against corrugated walls and high industrial windows. The track—3000 m2 of polished concrete—unfurls into a sequence of banked turns and short straights, daring you to find the edge of grip. Instructors move between helmets and cones with the calm, efficient air of people who have seen plenty of first-timers discover speed.

Adventure Tips
Arrive early to get fitted
Plan to arrive at least 20 minutes before your slot to complete waivers and helmet fitting so you don’t lose riding time.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Stable, closed footwear improves control and protects your feet during quick inputs and cornering.
Mind health restrictions
Not recommended for pregnant guests or those with spinal or serious cardiovascular issues; follow staff guidance at check-in.
Bring snacks or plan to order
You can bring food or order on-site—use the recreation zone to recover between runs and socialize after your session.
