California superbike school November Schools limited spots left

**neil_cb125t** · 19th May 2014, 20:38

Wanna ride safer, or race faster ........ Here’s the deal: I don’t know everything there is to know about riding, no one can claim they do because our understanding of the sport is still evolving. At the Superbike School we are certain that what we do works and I back that up with a genuine guarantee of improvement. . —Keith Code quote from the CSS USA website.

Black Crow promotions are running 2 days of Schools at Taupo Motorsports park on Monday the 10th and Tuesday 11th of November. These two days are booking up fast!

With 6 months to go there are only 15 spots left on Monday, and just over 30 left on the Tuesday........

For information on the school, the levels, the entry requirements etc jump onto http://www.californiasuperbikeschool.co.nz/ or ask away and ill happily answer the questions.

If the spots are filling up so fast why is there a need to advertise? What's the catch?

hahaha funny old thing we haven't advertised for the schools in November at all!! unfortunately I get heaps of people trying to book around a month out........we typically are full 3 months out.

No catches, catching or cats at all

I may be completely wrong but I'd say it'll probably come down to expenses and/or track bookings. I can't imagine they'd be cheap to run.

Making a long weekend of it so should be awesome.
Been about a year since i did Level 3 so looking forward to this.

Good good - yep registering is the first step. Damian is the main man to talk to for this sort of thing...the total payment is required quite a bit before the actual day. This is because the days fill up so early. Basically those who have paid are locked in. Those who have not paid will be contacted some time before the school to chase up/confirm, we can only hold un paid spots for so long...... every day thus far has had people turning up on the day just incase someone doesn't arrive!!

Damian is the main man for this types of deals his email is damian@blackcrow.co.nz

Really keen to make this happen!! The bottom line is we are not a CSS franchise, Black Crow is a promotion company that was created by the handful of Kiwi coaches to bring it back to NZ. Every NZ school is actually a Australasian CSS event, we hire the Aussies to come on and put on the School.....so we cover everything at each school, flights, accommodation, insurance, bikes, and it goes on.

The schools have to be full to ensure all costs are covered and can keep coming back - we are very lucky to have Nationwide sponsor us with awesome Pirelli Tyres, Kiwbike insurance help us with cover, not to mention Lee, Ash and Damian using their own motorcycles if needed as coach bikes!

We have tried to keep them "summer-ish seasoned"- do you think punters would be keen on a mid year school......June/july??

Yes fella, bit of costs to cover - see my other replies.....also its quite a bit of work to organise the schools, we pretty much need to be totally sorted/orginised for the Nov school.....when we are running the March one!
