Slighty gets the learn....

...NOT!
Today I was fortunate enough to be apart of a day long tuition session with Aaron Slight at the Taupo track care of the Honda Riders Club after I won a competition.
Left home at 6:45am in order to get into Taupo by 8:30am for breakfast care of Honda.
Fark me! I've never ridden on ice before!! The whole entire way the ground was white with frost and ice
Between Rotorua and Taupo I could not see more than 10m at any stage which made for interesting riding...nah...it just sucked but farked if I was going to miss out on breaky!
Finally got there,met the crew and then proceeded to the track for some tuition...some much needed tuition.
I was amazed that by Slight simply showing me some decent lines and throttle control how much faster I became during the day...as in 13sec's per lap and no I wasn't a complete learner to start with either!

HUGE thanks to Slighty and HRC for a day I won't forget...oh pic of the day/my life below and video to follow
