The Highway 2 Track Day ran from December 2019 to September 2025. The event took place on Horse Thief Mile, one of the lesser known tracks at Willow Springs International Raceway.
Horse Thief Mile is a unique track, and it gave birth to our track day. Redbird had been hosting suspension clinics and motorcycle technical skills workshops, but there is no amount of talk that can teach you muscle memory. Horse Thief Mile is the ultimate track to develop real life riding skills. Within 14 turns, numerous inclines and every imaginable style of apex, combining the track with a supportive riding experience was the perfect combination. And if you already have your skills about you, it's a fantastic track to have a great day riding on.
At this time it is unclear if Horse Thief will be available for motorcycle track organizations to rent in the future. In a perfect world, we will be able to develop a supportive relationship with the new ownership of Willow Springs. Supportive meaning that we would be able to continue to rent the track, at a cost that is sustainable, or perhaps even develop a sponsorship relationship with the new owners, where they would be supportive of our efforts.
We hope to leave the door open for such a relationship to be possible. As of November 2025, we have not been able to schedule future track days.
Horse Thief Mile was half of what made the track day what it was. The really incredible people who volunteered and the super cool bunch of folks that supported us with their presence made the whole thing possible. We're so very grateful to have had the run that we did. If you participated, you know. If you missed it, we're really sorry. It was special. It was a ton of fun. And hopefully, we helped people get their muscle memory on. We will not be pursuing another track.
Surely this is not an all-inclusive list, but we'd like to thank our core support team for years of laughter, smiles, long drives, long days, sore wrists and wonderful memories:
