    I'm out this week too.
    Tight u-turns would be good to work on, I'll have to practice while commuting - perhaps in stationary motorway traffic.
    I'd rather be sorry for something I've done, than for something I didn't do.

    Hey guys,

    So I've finally made the ATNR Junior thread. It's aimed at the newer riders that come along to NASS. Great place to practice any skills that you've picked up here. Please check it out!!

    Toying with ones mortality shouldn't be this much fun.

    I just read the list of the top 100 most dangerous intersections in NZ, and number 11 is the Coatesville ‐ Riverhead Highway/Dairy Flat Highway intersection that we turn at every Wednesday!

    Alas I can't make it there this week. I have a job for a customer out at Wiri, and there is no way I'll be able to make it back in time.

    Hey are you guys coming back????

    I need to work on my open road cornering. I'm taking the left in too soon and then exiting too wide as cannot keep it tight around the inside of the corner. And taking my rights too close as well, mainly because I'm scared of the gravel that is often on the outside of the corners. Its those pesky 35's and some 45's I hate.

    Yeah I should be heading along tomorrow, got to get some kays up on my new bike. And with new bike comes learning it's slow speed handling, so NASS sounds like a good idea. I'll try and get Master Timmeh to come as well, but no guarantees. But yes we can work on those lines for you

    Mmm, lines practice, yes please. That and smooth transitions through corners (mind you that covers a huge range of skills).
