Well, that was fun! Really brushed up on my skills and ran into Konan - small world. Got me lookinng again, and had a great time. All-in-all, I feel I should be doing this every two years or so...

It seems that even if you don't learn anything that you didn't already know, it might serve to get you back in the right mind set, and ward off complacency?

The class was fun. Lot of tricks that I need to improve on. As Dan said lot of little reminders that we tend to forget after a few years of riding.
Mikesth it was nice seeing you a gain.

Absolutely, can't say it was anything new, but it was very valuable getting coaching about turning head and looking all the way through corners and not getting lazy. Konan and I even scraped boards in the S curves, I wouldn't have been doing that the day before. - Much fun. Was also neat seeing how much traction we had in a parking lot with a very crappy surface

Basic Rider Course in AZ is $220. $230 for me because I paid with plastic.
