Premium Member fjray Posted April 1, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted April 1, 2021 I used to ride with yamajank but now he's probably too fast for me. JK. Jeff, you must show me the trail braking way. We discussed at a stop once that we didn't do it but we knew we should. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member 3sum Posted April 4, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted April 4, 2021 I'm getting ready for my ChampSchool next week at Road Atlanta. I'm contemplating going ahead and taking the centerstand off before I get there. I've never done a school or anything on a track other than 15 years ago and turned about 10 laps on a kart track with my DRZ-SM. I'm a little anxious. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member rustyshackles Posted April 4, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted April 4, 2021 Another school very worthy of consideration is Stayin’ Safe. I did this in 2018. We spent the better part of 2 days on mountain roads in N. Georgia and North Carolina. There was time spent on the range but it was mostly on roads. We’d stop for roadside instruction from time to time. What’s great is riders wear earpieces and the instructor, who is riding behind, gives feedback in real time using one-way radio. When we weren’t being coached on riding technique there was near-constant chatter about safety. 1 IBA Member #59800 3 Nations Brewing Mug Club #100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
