Two-Wheel Thunder Comes to Sonoma

AMA Pro Motorcycle Fans Invited to

Two-Wheel Thunder at Infineon Raceway

 

Race Fans Invited FREE on Friday, April 2, for testing, Supermoto demos
and more

 

SONOMA, Calif. (March 23, 2010) - Motorcycle madness will take over
Infineon Raceway during a two-day stretch as race fans are invited to
the 5th annual Two-Wheel Thunder on Friday, April 2. 

 

The raceway will host a two-day test session (April 1-2) featuring
several teams on the AMA Pro Road Racing circuit, including Graves
Yamaha, Yoshimura Suzuki and Jordan Suzuki, among others.  The test
session is being held in advance of the West Coast Moto Jam, May 14-16,
at Infineon Raceway.

 

The raceway will also feature a one-day ticket offer for the West Coast
Moto Jam - those who purchase a ticket on April 2 will get to take a lap
around the world-famous road course on their motorcycle following
testing. Admission to Two-Wheel Thunder is FREE and will also include an
AMA rider Q&A session at lunch and Supermoto USA demonstrations.

 

AMA riders expected to attend the test session include San Francisco
native Jake Zemke and Aaron Yates, both from Jordan Suzuki. Zemke was a
double-winner at Daytona (Fla.) in the Superbike class earlier this
month. Graves Yamaha will be represented by Daytona 200 winner Josh
Herrin, as well as Josh Hayes and Tommy Aquino. Tommy Hayden and Blake
Young, both with Yoshimura Suzuki, will also take part in the two-day
test.

 

There are also tentative plans for an electric motorcycle demonstration
at the lunch break on April 2. The raceway will host the TTXGP U.S.
Championships as part of the West Coast Moto Jam - it will be the
first-ever zero-carbon motorcycle race in the United States. The raceway
hopes to have a few of these motorcycles on display at the test session.
