It was a hot sweaty day in leathers, but I found it to be worthwhile and I'm pretty sure my riding has (and will continue to) improve.

The classroom sessions were easy to follow and taught some essential, basic cornering skills. The track time was essential in applying these skills. It was generally all very sensible riding on track, with only one session red flagged, after two crashes.

So was it worth spending £300 on? I think so. It picked up some real flaws in my riding, which I can now hopefully improve on during future trackdays, and on the road.

I've written a more complete review here - http://kapitalmoto.co.uk/node/112

Also met Kjetil from Norway on his black 749. Don't know your username on here mate, but great to meet you and hope we can go for a ride sometime.
