For some road riders, suggesting they spend a bit of time at the track in order to learn transferable skills, seems to offend them as much as suggesting they wear the school girls' skirt.
I'm not a racer at all, but I do venture to the track on occasion. For me it's about what my bike is capable of, changing lines thru a corner, leaning further, accurate throttle use in a safe environment. Or even something as mundane as tyre pressures and suspension settings
A new tagline to use for R4E, I'll go with the "train hard, ride easy" one already suggested
