If you fancy a track day and don't fancy mixing it with the track day nutters then this is a good one to go on.

BMW Club track days are for road bikes only, preferably ridden to the track, and are aimed at men and women who are basically road riders but fancy a bit of fun on the track now and again. In entering you agree to ride only a road legal motorcycle equipped with fully functioning lights and a full size rear number plate.  Road legal tyres are compulsory and tyre warmers are not allowed; you also agree to be courteous to other riders and to abide by their overtaking rules.

Their aim is that you don't have an off and get to ride your bike back home after the event.

BMW stopped this function, tracks available exist every Wednesday and weekends, 10 euros for every 20 min sessions.
And of course we have the CSS school every month so I'm covered, although a trip to UK and some track days experience would be greatly appreciated.
