Motorcyclists get their turn on Sonoma Raceway

Motorcycle riders get a chance to enjoy a high-speed day on the twists and turns of Sonoma Raceway, all in the name of charity at the 3J’s Motorcycle Days track day on April 26.

The 23rd 3J’s Motorcycle Days charity event includes a full day of riding around the 12-turn road course, catered lunch, T-shirt and an evening reception for all riders. Cost for the track day is $275, which includes six 20-minute, on-track sessions throughout the day. All riding levels are welcome. Proceeds benefit the Sonoma chapter of Speedway Children’s Charities, the charitable arm of Sonoma Raceway, which is dedicated to supporting Sonoma County youth groups.

The event also will include a raffle for donated prizes.

The 3J’s Motorcycle Days events have raised nearly $506,000 for worthy causes since 2003.

The two-wheel week kicks off with CLASS Motorcycle School on April 24 and April 25 and will also feature the American Historic Racing Motorcycle Association (April 27-28) and the American Federation of Motorcyclists (April 29-30).
