ERIC ARNOLD FUND RAISER TRACKDAY, SEP 27th, THUNDERHILL!
Please help us raise money for Eric Arnold -- our longtime instructor who was recently paralyzed in a tragic AFM race, by signing up for this special track day. All profit will go to his recovery fund to help ease the enormous financial burden he faces, adjusting to life in a wheelchair.
To maximize the contribution we are accepting only payment for this special event (no ticket pack tickets or VIP passes). KEIGWINS entire staff will pay their full share as well.
We will be auctioning many terrific prizes during the day. Come to ride at a wonderful time of the year at Thunderhill, and feel good about your contribution for a truly deserving cause. Eric and all the KEIGWINS staff are very grateful for your support!
TRAGEDY BEFALLS ONE OF THE GOOD GUYS. PLEASE HELP ERIC ARNOLD!
One of our company's most beloved instructors and a longtime customer favorite, Eric Arnold, was tragically injured in a recent AFM race. His injuries were numerous but the most devastating was to his lower spine leaving Eric paralyzed from the waist down. We hope and pray that intensive physical therapy and healing can reverse his fate.
What is certain is that Eric faces daunting financial hurdles. How sad to lose one's legs and turn a promising life upside down. It is sadder still to cope with impossible medical bills at the same time.
Please consider contributing whatever you can to the Eric Arnold Recovery Fund. If you know Eric we're sure you would agree he would be the first to step up to help any one of us. You may PayPal a contribution to: ericarnoldrecoveryfund@gmail.com
Bless you for helping, Lance and Linda Keigwin
TWO GREAT WAYS TO START TRACKDAYS WITH KEIGWINS!
Does the sound of “riding on a racetrack” make you nervous? KEIGWINS offers two ways to overcome those jitters and get off to a great start:
1) There’s no better program than our highly acclaimed, two-day novice school. You build confidence through structured lessons on fundamentals and lots of 1-on-1 help from our large staff of tenured instructors. Or...
2) Test the water at any trackday in our B- group. The B- group is non-competitive, smaller in size, and offers personal instruction and classroom orientation. BEGINNING IN MAY 2009 every new B- rider is guaranteed a personal 1-on-1 and a get-up-to-speed lesson taught by Lance Keigwin. No extra charge!
Call 650-949-5609 or email us for more information!

Thanks for stopping by. You can jump right in and order your track day or school, or you can browse this site to learn more about our program before deciding. The up-to-date 2009 Event Schedule shows our complete offering of schools and trackdays, indicates availability status and services offered.
Our track events offer a wide variety to appeal to different rider interests but they all share our simple philosophy that becoming a better, safer rider demands controlled conditions, capable help, and a well run program. There is no safer place or better learning environment than a racetrack, and no program more demanded than ours.
We have more than eleven years experience running hundreds of events for thousands of riders. We've learned what you want and enjoy. That's why Keigwins@theTrack events are California's most popular.
- Our acclaimed two-day schools focus on specific riding levels: novice and intermediate. Each offers maximum track time and one-on-one help from our staff of 25 regular instructors, classroom lessons on key topics, and training through on-track demonstrations and critique. Since students share similar abilities, lessons are targeted to your level.
- Non-school events ("trackdays") offer two formats: Two or three groups, where riders are separated according to speed and skill, and groups rotate time on the track. Trackdays are perfect for working on skills and building confidence without concerns over the hazards of the street. For maximum fun bring a buddy!
- New Racer Schools ("NRS") certify riders for racing with the American Federation of Motorcyclists (AFM). The AFM is the country's oldest racing club, and offers riders the chance to compete in numerous classes at premier racetracks in California. Our schedule page lists dates for these NRS schools (and they are conveniently packaged with a full track day!).
We work hard to ensure your safety. Our events are closely supervised by professional corner workers and by our on-track instructors. We never crowd the track in spite of demand. Unsafe, overly aggressive riding is never tolerated.
We are proud to be a very popular track event host, with a strong reputation for customer satisfaction, a no-nonsense approach to safety, and a compulsion for organization. Feel free to see why our events are preferred and check out feedback from our customers.
If you have any questions not answered on this website, please call or write. We are very good about returning email and phone calls, and if we are away at the track we attend to them just as soon as we return.
For those interested in keeping up with changes (new event dates, notices and details about the events, etc.) it is strongly recommended you join the Keigwins email list. It is a very quiet list with important announcements only rarely mailed.
Ride safely, and ride well. But please take the fast stuff off the street and onto the track!
