Mas du Clos
Sa-Su 20-21 May 2023
Book
DESCRIPTION
This is a beautiful 2 miles long slanting, private circuit, situated just next to Aubusson, also known as the ‘Brands Hatch’ of France.
It got this reputation due to its technicality, emotion and the respect it demands to ride it.
Next to the owner's castle are the fantastic meadows, the track twists nicely within it, which gives you the feeling that you’re in the middle of a beautifully kept golf course.
The scenery is an oasis of tranquility, with breathtaking panoramic views.
There has been a circuit here since 1967 but it has, in recent years, been completely renovated.
Formula 1 & Lotus legend Jim Clark used to entertain himself fantastically and Henri Pescarolo, the French Le Mans specialist used to drive the circuit often. Just as the many yearly returning auto clubs such as Nester Martin, Porsche, Alfa-Romeo, Ferrari, BMW, Mercedes, Bugatti, Bentley, Facel-Vega, Gordini, Toyota, Peugot…
It is a unique opportunity for us motorcyclists to be able to ride overthere.
HISTORY
The Circuit du Mas du Clos was founded in 1963 by Pierre Bardinon, one of the most famous Ferrari collectors in the world.
Pierre Bardinon
The circuit was initially built for private use before being opened to the public for private events by his son Patrick Bardinon.
The track is now managed by racer Alexandre Bardinon, the founder's grandson.
LOCATION
The Mas du Clos circuit is located in the department of la Creuse, in the hamlet of Les Puids, which lies along the N 141 Limoges - Clermont-Ferrand, 12 km east of Aubusson.
The department of La Creuse belongs to the Limousin region.
The region is absolutely beautiful and makes a trip before or after the Circuit event more than worth it!

BMW S 1000 RR test
In 2023, for the 12th consecutive year, EYBIS has the support of the factory BMW Motorrad in Munich.
This means we can enable you to test the new BMW S 1000 RR on the track!
The cost of a test ride is 25 €.
This includes:
- insurance (max. costs in the event of a crash = 2.000 €)
- tyre usage
- gasoline for one session of a 20' ride (in your own group instead of your own motorcycle)
After the morning briefing you can - between 9.00 and 10.00 - register for a test session.
What to bring along:
- ID card
- Driver's license
- Credit card (2.000 € guarantee)
Together we will determine in which session you will test the new BMW S 1000 RR on the track.
Then we attend you at the EYBIS pit box 15’ before your test session, where you will be assigned a coach.
After a brief introduction, he will explain the main features of your test motorcycle.
After finishing your test ride you will be "received" by your coach who will be interested in your feedback.
