Superbike-Coach Knee Down Classes 2Superbike-Coach

New Knee Draggers- 16 out of 21

,

It was another, highly dynamic Knee Down class last Saturday!

We’ve worked our butts off to make our students dreams finally come true. We didn’t achieve the same success rate of 18/21 this time, but 16/21 ain’t bad at all since there were even some riders who are actually haven’t been for long on bikes before.

We’re not just aiming for that particular goal only. Superbike-Coach knee down classes are a darn challenge, because we also go for entry, mid and exit corner speed and fix body positioning issues ON THE RUN. Means- even those 5 who ain’t got the damn knee down are going home with a whole lotta sack of knowledge and training.

I so loved everyone’s eager. Nobody gave up on themselves and I can’t be more proud for my crew Marion, Ben and Dean Lonskey, who took this fun shot of us which illustrates what kind of caliber our classes are… fun and efficient.

Around 2000 pictures are ready for FREE download for our students by mid of this week. Can’t wait to see them :-)

Superbike-Coach Track Day at Thunderhill Raceway

,

I wished I could put better into words what my team and I’ve seen at the Superbike-Coach Track Day at Thunderhill Raceway last Saturday (9/8/2018). We’ve seen riders who were riding with tons of respect for each other- holding back with a smile. For me, that goes before ‘lap times’, because attributes like respect, honor, loyalty and truth are getting quickly lost in competitive environments (and these days btw)! I ensure you… that’s not us and we leave this to others!

Can we do better?! For sure, because NOTHING in life is perfect, so we’ll keep working even harder to deliver what’s right.

I think that the pictures my photographers Michelle Tilley and Dean Lonskey have featured are telling the story. Over 4000 pictures are done soon… as usual absolutely FREE OF CHARGE. Till then… enjoy about 80 featured pictures upfront

Cornering Day 2 Class Efficiency

, ,

We just finished another Cornering Day 2 class, and I am always surprised what kind of quantum jumps my students are taking.

Amazingly, they feel calmer, relaxed and actually “slower”. What they feel is the potential what they’ve been missing out for so long. Since Day 1, they went through lots of major subjects on and off the track: Body positioning, viewing technique, all types of lines, real counter steering, uber-steer, emergency braking, clutch less up shift, downshift pattern and gear choice… all of it in a logic order and designed for maximum learning effect. That’s it?!… No, there is even more to come- even things like Trail Braking.

I so love seeing their smiles when they finished their session and finally got it. That means the world to me!

Superbike-Coach Track Day at Thunderhill Raceway on 9/8/2018

,

Here it comes again- the Superbike-Coach Track Day at Thunderhill West Raceway. In one month from now, on 9/8/2018, we are starting our 6th track day at this amazing track.

Our track days are track beginner and safety orientated, and 90% of the riders have done programs with Superbike-Coach. You’ll find a way higher respect level for each other as anywhere else. The family like environment is special, and I put heart and soul into it. I leave at that point away what other organizers do, and leave that to you to find out. But this is what WE do, and not do:

  • No fast-guy preferred ‘we make fun about your chicken strips’ event. Every rider on every bike is welcome.
  • We don’t require and bike preparation.
  • We don’t require racing gear just to have some fun with us. Street riding gear is fair enough.
  • We’re not saving on rental fee and corner workers by skipping on best parts of the West track. No- we’re using all 10 turns for maximum fun.
  • That also makes a lower headcount/track length ratio with SBC.
  • Eight corner Marshall’s seeing more than four.
  • Our ‘black sheep’ penalty system keeps BS portions low.
  • We have experienced control riders who are there for the riders, not to race each other.
  • Top notch medical and safety staff.
  • We tow your bike back into the paddock if necessary.
  • We have Dean Lonskey photographer giving his work for FREE to all riders. What’s that… a 50-100 bux saving?!
  • And I am, a ex-Pro racer and professional coach, giving a FREE ‘ideal line west seminar’ and ride with you whenever possible.

What I personally like the most with our track days are the people which are coming together, from my team, track staff and of course the riders. So if you are worried doing a track day because of all the things you’ve heard… then here is the solution. Join our non-competitive and less-hassle track day on September 8th 2018 at Thunderhill Raceway with Superbike-Coach.

Extraordinary Wheelie Class

,

This was a extraordinary class last Sunday. The success rate is also pretty high, though we had 2 crashes. Luckily they are doing OK as I’ll stay in touch with them.

I felt everyone’s eager, but it was expected that not everyone is going to make it, so I hope that they could get value out of it anyway. I am proud of each one and so is the rest of the Superbike-Coach team.

My photographer, Dean Lonskey sends greets and THANKS for leaving him a tip. He loaded some featured pics of the class up which cuts your waiting time until 1200 free pics are finally uploaded by the end of the week.

Here are some shots:
