Andy Ibbott and his staff Superbike School :: Staff are masters in communication, they can put across in one day what it would take a lifetime to figure out on your own.

To express how valuable I feel their training is, I would support making that sort of training compulsory for all new bike riders and my children, if they want to ride a bike will have to do at least level 1 first.

The only problem I have found with the school, is that a lot of people perceive it as a track/racing training which is far removed to what it actually is. I found it to be a revelation as to how corners and their dynamics can be simply understood. They use the safe track environment only for the training and one thing it is definitely not, is a track day. The day is very disciplined and everyone from novice to expert will enjoy it and learn lots from it.

P.S. btw I am not sponsored by them, I just think they are GGGGGGRRREEEEEEAT __________________
My point is that on a wide one way track the shape you make through a corner includes the word apex........on the road it doesnt.
