This weekend, Austin's Circuit of the Americas racetrack welcomes another world-class race to the city: the 2015 MotoGP Red Bull Grand Prix of the Americas. The race pits some of the world's best motorcyclists against one another in a thrilling competition to crown the world's fastest bike.
It happens from April 10 through 12, and it features three classes of motorcycle: 1000cc Superbikes, Superstock 1000 bikes, and smaller 600cc bikes. The result might be some of the most exhilarating racing you'll see anywhere.
In addition to the races, the 2015 MotoGP features several other interesting events. There'll be an aerobatic demo in which a top pilot performs breathtaking aerial feats in a specialized airplane, a freestyle motorcycle demo, and a moto trials demo. Capping off the weekend will be a Cheap Trick concert at the Austin360 Amphitheater.
It all happens just a short trip away from Elan East, and if you'd like to buy tickets you can find out more on the Circuit of the Americas website.
