I finally got the chance to experience what it’s like riding pillion with British Superbike racer Dan Linfoot at Croft Circuit… and WOW.
I’ve done track days before, but absolutely NOTHING prepares you for the speed, braking and cornering of a professional racer. I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever experienced adrenaline like this.
In this vlog you’ll see:

Be honest… would YOU get on the back of a racer? 😅🏍️ I genuinely wasn’t prepared for that level of speed!
Hi Forgive me for sounding like a Idiot. At 4mins 23 of your Video. Could you Tell me Please what was the Gentleman in the Blue white orange Leathers putting in his Bike was it Petrol. And next silly question was in a Fuel Tank Silmlar to the NC750X.
Many Thanks.
Wow that looked absolutely terrifying. Your a lot braver than me great video
Croft looking great – I wonder why BSB don't use it any more?
Hi Brave Girl…….In the day I had a couple of Track Days at Donnington with Ron Haslam Track Days, he used to take a pillion around , as you probably know, my son and I thought we were ''the bee's knees'' thinking we were absolutely flying, as we thought that, Ron would fly past into the next bend then just leave us for stood, with his Honda CBR1000r two up, amazing what racers can do. We did have an excuse, we were on CBR600's and he was on a CBR1000 or we would have had him…..yeeah right 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ride Safe
John.
Deleted my previous comment after watching the whole thing.Apologies.
Hi great video very brave . Ive done a lap of the the tt with a friend whos a tt racer we did it on standard fireblade the trust he put in the tyres is next level all he said before he set off is trust me your fella looked a bit peaved on your journey home great video
Like your comments about how you thought you were quick until then !
Looked fantastic a brilliant rider well done
It looked terrifying 😂🏍
Best track pillion ride I've seen. The feedback afterwards and describing the experience was so cool too.
Weeeee!
Can this be recorded without having to take someone to record it for you?
Your so brave to do that.👹. I couldn't have done it, but then again, I'm yitten 🙄. Never been good at riding pillion. Well done. Ride safe 👍.
Dan is a great guy
awsome that ,,like when your thinking I want off this ride and there’s nothing you can do about it 😃🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴😮
Dan linfoot is a top drawer rider and bloke, Great video.
Wow what an fantastic experience that must have been at that level of speed as a pillion rider.
Your a very brave young lady, I wouldn’t do that for a gold pig. And I’ve been riding for sixty years,
Great experience for to show a little of what these top riders do. Nice wingback seats in the car, what do you drive?
NFW. I haven’t ridden bitch since….my first time on a motorcycle; Sept 1978. I’m still riding, all sport bikes still. I trust NO ONE, and sitting on a postage stamp seat gives me zero confidence and literal support/safety. -70
Totally different on track than on the road. Ps, you don't half look good in those new leathers.😊
I was doing that track day and I found it absolutely astonishing how quick he was with a pillion, he went by me everytime like i was stopped, and even how late at breaking he was, i was going as hard as i could and looked like a learner 😂 I'm glad you enjoyed your day and I personally cant recommend Whithams track days enough.
Many moons ago, I used to Marshall at Croft circuit, I was always given sunny corner, either sunny in or sunny out. Croft was/is a stunning circuit to ride.
