I went on a subsidized advanced open road course with mainland Riding here in Christchurch today.
Was it worth it? Yes because I learnt a couple of things. What the adhesion limits of my tires were under sever braking.
The road signs with recommended speeds for corners all say different things, and learning to read the signs makes my ride more comfortable.
How much more trust I can put into the front wheels grip on a down hill road, and why.
That I ride too close to the left of the road in open road areas, where I would have a low reaction time if an animal of any sort decided to cross in front of me.
I recommend doing any sort of training you can get, even learning one small thing, makes it worth it. So go for it if you can.
To be old and wise, first you must be young and stupid.
