Title: Anyone done Advanced Rider Training?
Post by: missk8t on September 12, 2011, 04:48:10 PM
Hey Everyone

I'm thinking of signing up for some advanced rider training. In Aus there's a company called Stay Upright which does a heap of courses. What's everyone's thoughts/feelings on classes like these?

Any Aussies done the stay upright classes? If so, what'd you think?

My wife bought me the intermediate course with Stay Upright and I'd love to go back and do the Advance courses. I loved it. Made me more aware of what was going on with me and the bike.

Any class is worth it if you take something away from it. They also give you the chance on a surface that is in good repair, good visibility and no traffic to perfect actions. I'm a huge advocate that you can never do to many courses when it comes to making you better. You don't always have to agree with the instructors but its about you learning everything you can and then making the best application of knowledge you have learned. I.e. This part works, thats crap, this is good, etc and making that your base style to build on.

Hmmmm........
Taking a class to be a better rider and improve my skills.  :embarrassed:

OK, let's not bother answering this no-brainer question.  :cookoo:

Instead, give us a report on what you learn in the class.  :D
