If you’re itching to twist the throttle on some of the most iconic tracks in the country, mark your calendar—DoubleRFest is back, and it’s packing serious heat.
First stop: Circuit of The Americas (COTA) in Austin, TX this September. Yeah, that COTA—the one where F1 and MotoGP legends do their thing. You’ll get two full days of track time, dialing in your skills with coaching from BMW Brand Ambassador and all-around track wizard Nate Kern, plus special guests. On top of that, you’ll get to experience some adrenaline-pumping hot laps in BMW M cars—driven by pros, of course. To top it all off, there’s a group dinner so you can swap stories and bench race with fellow riders.
Then, on October 6, the day after BMW Motorrad Days Americas, DoubleRFest heads to the legendary Barber Motorsports Park. This one’s more intimate—just 25 riders per group—which means more laps, more elbow room, and more personalized coaching with Nate and his crew. Barber is a rider’s dream: flowing corners, fast sections, and the kind of layout that begs for speed and precision.
Bring your bike. Bring your edge.
This isn’t just a track day—it’s an experience. Spots are limited and they’ll go quick.
What is DoubleRFest?
DoubleRFest isn’t your average track day—it’s a high-octane, rider-focused experience built by Nate Kern, a pro racer turned coach with two decades of BMW racing under his belt. Born out of Nate’s passion for giving back to the sport, DoubleRFest blends pro-level coaching, small riding groups, and a deep focus on safety, technique, and fun. Whether you’re a seasoned track junkie or just getting your feet wet, this event is all about learning to ride smoother, faster, and safer—while having an absolute blast doing it.
