Updating your skills [Archive]

:gob: Hi guys an:rofl: :rofl: d gals,

I am now open for business for rider training. whether you have been riding for years, or just a couple of months, then look to see what I can offer you. Every stage of rider is considered, except those needing to do their basic handling skills test. Once you have passed this, then I am your person.
All you need is a valid licence, and a road legal bike.

Discretion is assured....your friends don't need to know that you took lessons from a WOMAN>:gob:

Do you want to learn to ride a motorcycle??
Do you consider yourself to be a skilled motorcyclist?
If you do, can you answer these questions?
· What is the “tyre-grip-trade-off” and how does it affect your riding?
· What is meant by the limit point?
· When you overtake other traffic, do you keep your fingers crossed, or are you 100% comfortable with the manoeuvre?????

If you answered “I don’t know” to any of the above three questions, then you are in need of some tuition
Or maybe you have had a nasty experience, whilst riding your motorbike. Was there something that you could have done to avoid that situation arising??
No-one can ride perfectly. Every one has some mistakes.
As motorcyclists we need to ride DEFENSIVELY.
That doesn’t mean slowly and timidly, it means looking out for other road users, and not being surprised by their actions.
Training can make you a smoother rider, which not only leads to fewer accidents, but also reduces the wear and tear on your machine.

Phone Tricia on 021 269 3246, or email on triciaoconnor@xtra.co.nz and see what some training can do FOR YOU.
· Specialising only in motorcycle instruction.
· Holder of Diploma in Motorcycle Instruction.
Complete bike to bike radio system.

Places are filling up, so get in early.

Do you want to learn to ride a motorcycle??

Yes

Do you consider yourself to be a skilled motorcyclist?

If a muppet can be skilled, then yes/maybe, prolly not

If you do, can you answer these questions?

I'll Try

· What is the “tyre-grip-trade-off” and how does it affect your riding?

Ummm buy tyre fall off, more grip, buy new tyre fall off, get grippest tyre, still fall off, learn to ride properly, bingo tyre grip trade off!!

· What is meant by the limit point?

Umm most prolly the point where you fall off, thats your limit

· When you overtake other traffic, do you keep your fingers crossed, or are you 100% comfortable with the manoeuvre?????

Depends on the speed of the wheelie and how many cars i'm planning to overtake, to how comfy i am

P.S. PM cowpoos, shit i saw him riding at taupo the other day and he's in real need of help, not just in riding either.

Nice to see another "29er". 1977 was a good year, eh? My wife says if I'm really really good I might see the 30th!:shutup:

Ps. I assume that in order to update one's riding skills one must first aquire said skills...? Does the fact I haven't fallen off very often count as skills?:innocent:

Hey! it sounds like you are referring to me.
Everyone knows if you want to be a better rider you just go out and buy Rossi Replica leathers and Helmet :nya:

I'm keen on this 'updating your skill's however, so will keep an eye out on future opportunities to partake.

Once to question - Is it possibly to have the session split up, i.e. 2 hours one day and 2 hours on another, or is it only practical if done in a 4 hour session? or what exactly is the schedule?

5th June 2006, 10:18

Yes , since you are local, you could do two hours one day, and two hours the next day. But I find that for people who have a good sound riding knowledge, as opposed to newbies, get better results from a four hour session.PM me your availability if you like.

Absolutely Brilliant is how I describre my lesson with Tricia:) This lady knows what she's talking about and she did it in a way that I didn't feel like a complete moron :) Those 4 hrs just flew by and Tricia only went over the basics. (what does that tell u about my riding ah? :( ) No honestly, I've come away feeling much better on my bike and I will make sure I do the practising bits first b4 I go off riding. HIGHLY RECOMMENDABLE is what I have to say, and I'm amazed how Tricia could pick out straight away where I could improve, very clever lady. Thank you Tricia for the Saturday lesson, I will be in touch to see when you can book me in again, prob in a few months time.
:rockon:
As said above Tricia nows what she is talking about i have got back into riding in the last couple of years,done the BRONZ course and followed up with a riding assesment by tricia,did it with a pillion and was benificial for my cornering and the little things that make for a safer ride,her explanations were clear and understandable. But might have to buy another bike now as she has convinced the wife to take up riding:scooter:

Glad you enjoyed the session. Like I told you on the day, your wife is a natural "bikie". Get that 250 out of the shop PDQ (Pretty Damn Quick)

I attended a session with Tricia last Sunday and came away with a huge boost of confidence. I have been riding/commuting for 2 and a half years (without any training) and picked up a lot of bad habits along the way. Tricia soon put a stop to all of that in a couple of hours. It's one thing to read about techniques etc in a magazine but to have someone following you and nit-picking (in a nice way) is terrific. I will be going back in a couple of months when the weather is better:sunny: and would recommend anyone thinking about doing this to DO IT. Once Tricia shows me how to corner better look out Rossi..:2guns:

Hi there,
Thanks for your post. As soon as I have a commitment of three or more people for the weekend in Tauranga, then I can start making def bookings. So as I said, first come first served.
As soon as I have a min of three people (each for 3-4 hour sessions) then I take deposits, and bookings are confirmed.

HI there,
Yes I do. Your partner will need to have her Learners Licence first and her own road-legal bike though. So she will need to go to someone to get her BHS test, then sit her theory test, and then, once she has a bike, I can start her from scratch. IF she has already been riding pillion for 5.5 years, then I expect that within about four hours, I could have her riding around her own environment, on roads that she is familiar with.

She can learn that when she is doing the BHS course. If there was an off-road area near where you live, and if she had a 250, then I could teach her, but I can't take her on the road, until she gets her learners licence.

I think you may have two in Whangarei - my wife, and a mate of hers want to do some rider training. The wife's got a reasonable amount of experience, but has been off the road for a few years, so wants a refresher, and her mate is a newbie - so will need the learner course. D'you do courses around Whangarei - or is it better for them to head up to the Whangaparoa?

My preference would be around Whangaparaoa or Orewa area, but your wifes friend may not have enough experience to ride that far, but I am sure we could sort something out.

Hi Guys and Gals,
As well as having a GN250 Training bike (with a 100% test pass rate), I can now offer the Basic Handling Skills test. This is conducted at AUT at Akoranga.
So anyone who is interested in maybe getting a motorcycle licence, (and with the soaring petrol costs...who wouldn't?) then give me a shout.
I do Basic Handling Skills tests each weekend, rain or shine.
The GN250 is fully insured and carries a current WOF. All you need to use it is a Class 6 Learner, restricted of full licence.
If you have your own bike, and any class 6 licence, then I can easily take you to the next step of your learning and development, or prepare you for your test. I have yet to meet someone who knows everything about riding a bike. I certainly don't profess to do that, I learn something new every day.
If you are interested in any of the above, then please contact me on rcsom@xtra.co.nz or phone 021 269 3246.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi there,
On 5th April I had a 3 hr Instruction with Tricia, I have had my full licence for 5 months and felt a need to upskill.

Tricia is extremely well qualified, and picks up on your weak points quickly.
She sets you up with an intercom so she can instruct/advise as she rides behind you, which is great as you get an immediate response to your actions taken or not as the case may be.

I will definately be back for more lessons, when I have mastered all she taught and showed me, as I feel the tuition was well worth the effort and money well spent ........... Chrissy

This Sunday at Albany Massey Campus, I will be doing my usual Basic Handling Skills sessions, and will follow on with an ACC subsidised two hour session on slow speed control. The cost for the Slow skills course will be $50, and ACC pick up the rest of the tab.
You do need to book for either BHS or SS course, and first come first served.

I did the 2 hour course this morning at Orewa and found it immensely helpful. It made me realise that whatever slow riding I'd done before, there's slow and then there's sloooow! I was astonished at just how slowly I was able to move my bike and how important it is to use the rear brake (in the past I've largely relied on the front). My doubts about how I'd cope, especially since the bandit is (for me) such a heavy bike, proved unfounded although I must say that it required a lot of concentration!!

Definitely recommend to anyone else wanting to improve their low speed riding skills.

You did a terrific job this morning PrincessBandit...... You had full control of that bike, and it was very stable-no wobbling... Just need the practice now, to make it second nature.
Thanks for coming along...
Hope to catch up soon.

After this weekend, I won't be riding for a couple of weeks, But I am happy to start taking bookings for the 2nd or 3rd week in April.
This can either be ACC subsidised, or if you have already used that up, then straight forward skill enhancement.
You can contact me through KB, Pm or call me on my cell phone 021 2693246.
Acc are keen for me to use up the allocated slots, as they will expire in June, and to be honest, who wants to ignore free training/assessment..

Hi everyone,
Free motorcycle skills assessments available for the afternoon of 15th April. First available slot is 3pm. This would be incredibly useful for anyone who has a motorcycle test coming up over the next couple of months, and if you are eligible to do a test, then get it out of the way before the new tests come in.

The next date after this for free assessments will be the 21st April.
In order to be eligible, you need to have some form of Class 6 licence, even if you are on a Scooter on a class 6 licence, you are eligible.

These free slots expire in June, so they won't be around forever.
If you would like to take advantage of a free assessment, no matter what level your riding is at, then please contact me on: 021 2693246 or email rcsom@xtra.co.nz.
Also check out www.facebook.com/roadcraft for updates on the new tests.
