Ron Haslam then Cali level 1&2

**R6BLADE** · 07 Apr 08, 09:08 PM

Just booked up some track training over the next couple of months as i have never had any sort of coaching. I decide to do Ron Haslams school on the 7th may. Then i have booked Cali superbike school level 1 & 2 on the 22nd and 23rd July at Brands hatch ... I really can't wait ... I hope i will get loads out of it as in november I am off to Almeira in Spain for 3 days

The two days back to back at Brands are probably going to be rather intense ... hope i have not bitten off more than I can chew .... I will probably do the days on my K6 Gixxer which is pretty much a track bike with quickshifter etc and i would be leased worried about binning.

Well done, but its a lot to take in, as you have already said. I'm not so certain that they will want you using a qwik shift tho'. I maybe wrong I often am.

Maybe not but i can still use standard shift and then oops forgot the clutch

I guess it will be a lot but I have done countersteering courses before etc ... my body positioning is what suks i think so hopefully that is what i can really improve.

R6BLADE, I am doing CSS level 1 on the 20th April then Ron Haslam on the 22nd (with a Bikesafe thrown in on the 21st for good measure). I am a complete novice, so I will let you know how I get on.....

I'm doing a Ron Haslam (premier) on 21st May. Can't wait. The good thing is, you use their cbr600's so if you bin it, at least you don't do it on your own bike.

I am on the first session on the first day of the year... so I would be binning a brand new bike!!

Try not too, as I don't think they give you another if you do and you lose your deposit.

Sweet enjoy! Definitely let me know what you think after you have run them. Are you doing CSS 1 on your bike or their R6?

The 848!

Jolley are you doing Ron Haslam on the 22nd April at 8:15 start?....
Also CSS level 1 on the 20th of April?
if so I will see you at both? how strange! I had CSS booked for a while and I just managed to get a place on Ron Haslam after someone cancelled.

I will be taking my m600 DD bike (to ride it for the first time ever!) and if I can get it back together on time I will also bring my 848 (waiting for some replacement fairings which I bought from the US after I had an off last weekend).

Bad news about the bike. Doesn't sound like the damage to you or the bike is too bad though!

Yes, I will see you at both.
