I will be in Italy on that very day but some alternatives may be able to be worked out. I still think some set up schools away from a track would provide much much more initial value and understanding. More people will benefit much more quickly and to a degree would be able to pass this knowledge on to a wider spectrum of riders.

I used to drink Guinness ( in the UK ) but coffee is now more relevant!

And everyone else misses out?

In order to gain practical knowledge, we need the theoretical knowledge to lay the foundations. This thread has been extremely helpful, and entertaining. But I for one would far prefer to have a classroom type situation. I believe Ryan was trying to organise something?

These comments make perfect sense. One workshop in Auckland. Then one in Wellington on say a Saturday, fly to Chch Sunday and conduct one there. ( I merely need to recover costs and doing it this way puts me on a main flight route ) Maximum of 20 per workshop. Does that make sense ?

Frosty, this kind of answers your pm. Ryan is trying to organise one in Auckland, a matter of nailing the date.
