Riding course??

[tuscan]

Can anyone tell me where I can find out about doing a riding course similar to that one at Whenuapai a wee while ago? :spudwhat:

I couldn't make it to that one but am pretty keen to learn a few skills beyond the basic handling...

who knows. if you want traing heres a couple of options

1. start with people you know a better then you ask them for pointers but stay inside your limits.

2. keith codes book or video is very good

3. October the 16th(yes the waikato rally) there is a training day at the taupo track where the empasis is on training not going round a track fast, Hamilton motorcycle club are running this so contact them if you want. its $100

4. i saw a thread in here somewhere theres a training day at taupo again with fred merkel for $250.

5. Honda riders club are running a training day at taupo again on November the 9th.

Taupo is a track that will suit your bikes top speed (even on my 600 its pretty hard to hit 200) this also helps because the speed difference from the road isnt a great deal where as pukekohe the speed jump from the road is quite a lot. hope this all helps

Just in case there is any confusion, these are the same courses. The Ride Right Ride Safe course is the one at Whenuapai run by Finn and Peggy from BRONZ. It looks like the next one might be on the 17th of October (see http://bronz.org.nz/events.htm ). You should try phoning them as Yarg suggests, or you could email them at bronzauckland@hotmail.com .

I did the course in April this year and thought it was great.
