    Wow what a fantastic day that was! Stunning weather, excellent trainers and helpers. Thanks to Karel and the Prorider team for making it a fantastic day.

    The experience gained was very helpful and I am still grinning from ear to ear and buzzing from the experience. Pretty much the best day on two wheels I have ever had.

    Thoroughly recommended to anyone wanting to improve their speed and smoothness and brush up on the fundamentals.

    Cam.

    I, for one, am a much better rider under 30 kph than when I went in, that's for sure. Really well run day.

    Great to meet some of you guys there too

    Once again Prorider - thanks for an incredible day. SECOND best day of my life, and you guys gave me the first!

    Lost my confinece a bit at the end yesterday, but am slowly getting that back again. Thank you to all the trainers for your support, and first class training. Oh, and the good laughs!

    Looking forward to the next one!!

    Once you get used to scraping everywhere, you'll be fine

    (And you showed those cones who was boss.)

    P.S. Time to change your profile picture.

    Top day. Very tired by the end but really enjoyed it.

    Fully recommend this course to anyone who is considering doing it.

    A big thanks to Karel and her team.

    Too right! Can't seem to get enough. All I ever want to do know is be on a bike, and I have a craving for learning more skills for riding. That 650 Suzuki was fun! Pleased I got a spin on that

    Will put some photos of my bike up in the next few days. Actually forgot to take my camera to the track, a real blonde moment there. But hopefully there are some shots from the photographer.

    Yep, a fantastic day!!!!

    Yup deffo the best day ive had on my bike and didnt even matter that i had the smallest one. Everyone was so friendly, espechailly the trainers "i dont care how fast your bike can go get your ass on the track" when i was waiting so i could enter last. Learning the skills was the best and once i figured out how to set up for the corner and how to throw my weight into the lean it was so fun. The only bugger was that i never conqoured the hair pin, but it gives me a convienient excuse to go to the next one! Many thanks to Karel who was a awesome coach and brilliant at explaining everything.
    Cant wait till training day on monday!

    Too right! We were all there to learn and have fun! Great to meet you and chat too. It's not the size of the bike that matters but how you use it. One of the great things about social riding events is the chance to enjoy good company and appreciate the sheer diversity of the riders and their rides.

    Awww bike lol silly me !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Couldn't help myself Cam haha

    Hmmm tempting but round 1 of the winter series is on sat, plus i got a 50th i'm suppose to be riding up to that day, so it's a bit of a side step dilema going on, as to which bike here as it is !
    Will keep an eye out on the thread, I know i'm too fat to race so if it's a Rapa run yas all do, i might tag along and then peel off and carry on north to pahiatua an get fatta !
