Hayden to ride 1909 Indian at Indy!

2006 MotoGP world champion Nicky Hayden will visit the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the first time on Monday April 7 - when he will ride a restored Indian motorcycle, which competed in the first motorised race at Indianapolis on August 14, 1909, around the new road course.

It will be the first lap by a motorcycle around the new 16-turn, 2.620-mile circuit, which incorporates part of the famed oval and will host the inaugural Red Bull Indianapolis GP on Sunday, September 14.

After the historic first lap on the Indian, Hayden will ride a Honda production bike around the new course, before having his photo taken on the famous Yard of Bricks and speaking with the media.
