Ride A Red Bull KTM Moto2 Bike At The Austrian GP Circuit

Unfortunately, the motorcycles don’t have wings.

Red Bull KTM Moto2

Many of us motorcyclists wonder what it’s like to compete in a MotoGP race. Whether you take to the track, local canyons, or pretend from the comfort of your recliner, few ever get the chance to experience the power and precision of a race-spec machine. Red Bull KTM and Projekt Spielberg want to change that with Moto2 Experience featuring five Red Bull KTM-prepared motorcycles. 

Hosted at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg bei Knittelfeld, Austria, the on-track experience offers four different packages to suit various skill levels and pocketbooks. For many, the Austrian GP race circuit won’t be easy to access with COVID-19 travel restrictions in place and the Austria/Italy border still closed. Those that can reach the Red Bull Ring between early June and late July should get a move on booking now, as most of the program slots have been claimed on the racecourse’s website.

If you’re looking for a quick fix with minimal instruction, the Moto2 Experience Lead & Follow options may be the best fit for you. The Bronze lead and follow package includes 15 minutes of track time with an instructor leading you through the 10-turn 2.7-mile course. At 190 ($208 USD), the price is quite reasonable for access to the world-class racetrack and Moto2 machine. Those that won’t more can double their track time with the Silver package at 350 ($384 USD). 

If you’re seeking a more immersive experience, the Moto2 Training program is a tier above the Lead & Follow offerings. With instructors laying out the secrets of the Spielberg track and tips for riding a 130-horsepower KTM Moto2 monster capable of 180 mph. The Training Silver class four and a half hours of theory and one hour of track time for €600 ($658 USD).  

While the Training Gold course retains four and a half hours of classroom time, it expands your time on the Red Bull Ring to 3 hours. Of course, the Gold package comes in with a premium price tag of €890 ($977 USD), but that’s surprisingly affordable when compared to similar courses on non-Moto2 bikes.  

If you’re one of the lucky riders to enjoy the Moto2 Experience, you’ll never have to wonder what it’s like to race on Sunday again.
