Questions and Answers

If I buy multiple coupons, how much track time is there on subsequent visits after the first visit? Would each subsequent visit be the same format as the first? Thanks.

If the workshop have max 8 people, and the total time is 2 hours, does it mean more than 1 people will be on a track at a given time? I want to estimate the total time required if I come with a group of 2-4 people thanks
