    improving riding

    Thanks for all the suggestions, and so promptly. Sheit, you have my b/friend beaten in response time.

    Sorry babe

    Yep, orleans isn't so useful. Palmerston North, where there are not so many opportunities for tuition here except for ProRider that intermittently comes to Manfield.

    Skills need improving in cornering mainly.

    So will aim for something formal, but also get out on the road more often -

    I prefer to ride solo too, I can be way too much of an idiot when my mates push me.
    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    Keep an eye on the Manawatu Threads,There is a alot KBr's in the Manawatu,

    I found one of the best roads to gain confidence through corners was the Pohangia valley East Road,the First 20 odd ks up to Hyland Christan Camp is a good selection and well marked road some 45s but a good selection of open corners,do that strerch 1/2 dozen times and watch your condidence grow,

    the 30 odd ks from HCC to Apiti is good but the road is narrow in alot off places and there is almost zero road markings...
