Riding Skills

I posted a couple of times in the last few days about a course I have been taking this last weekend. It was using the same principal as this C.O.P.. One of the best most fun things I have ever done on the Nomad. By day two I was doing "two parking spots" wide, up hill figure eights, small circles, U-turns in two and three wide parking spots. Just a great course. Was I as fast or as smooth as as the C.O.P. ??? No! but I got it done.
Have a look at the link to the web page of the place I took the course from. http://www.roadcraftacademy.com/
The guy in the video was one of the instructors I had teaching me. 14 bikes and not one of us dropped our bikes or even came close, to my knowledge. Once you have the principles down it's not too hard. I think everyone should have to take the course before they do the road test for their license.
I will be taking a look at my rear brake pads when I get home from the cabin
