This is about the Cornering School Day (Sep 7th). Unfortunately we have to reschedule this event to this new date: September 28th 2014
Students who already booked will be transferred to the Sep 28th list of course. Luckily there is plenty of time to flick things around to plan things. We’re expecting that also this Cornering School Day will be sold out, so sign up soon.

Straight out: I consider the general motorcycle rider education- at least in California, nothing else as a joke. Though, my guess is that the situation isn’t much better in other states. First of- my knowledge comes from teaching thousands of students on the track and street- asking pretty much each of them from who- and where they learned from. I’ll give you some ‘pictures’ according to what I’ve seen where their level at:
There was a 17 year old new rider in one of me ‘Cornering School Day‘ classes and he was taught by “the” certified institution for motorcycle drivers licenses what ‘Trail Braking’ is. Quote: “...it’s applying the rear brake by being on the throttle while entering a turn“. I have no name for that kind of “made-up”- but theories…
No clue theory: “The” certified institution has no idea what Trail Braking actually is, and just made this up… or
No resources theory: They actually know why the best riders on this planet are doing it- but can’t teach it… or
Marketing theory (my favorite): They figured that the Trail Braking process involves front brake usage while entering a turn is actually a conflict to their certified curriculum- to stay away from the front brake doing any leaning. The goal… in order to “sell” to the people that they do “teach” Trail Braking, and to have an effective Google key word driving traffic to their website… they just made their version of Trail Braking up
There was that 65 years old Lady who reached retirement and bought a brand new motorcycle to finally live her dream. She called me to teach her to

I am sorry but I have to reschedule your Cornering School Day which was scheduled for 6/15/2014.
After a track inspection this morning I decided to reschedule the Sunday class for safety reasons. I am as disappointed as you guys are, because I love this class.
Don’t worry… neither your payment or coaching spot is gone- we’re just waiting for a new date from the track owner. So it’ll be that new date- or you pick any other Cornering School Day we have scheduled.
However, your Cornering School Day will be perfect with lots of fun and learning… promise!

The knee down and Wheelie classes last Saturday and Sunday (May 17 and 18) was a blast. We had students coming over from D.C., Ohio, Oregon, Nevada, and from all over California. All of them hard workers and no quitters- which I really appreciated the most.
Knee Down
That this class is more than just to drag the knee should be logic. Of course there is more to know and to work on to get the job done. To do this on public roads would be against the law and common sense- as well as our believes- so the environment we at Superbike-Coach are using since 3 years now is just perfect.
The morning began as usual with a warm welcome and introduction. After a short briefing we went for a track walk, where we was talking about a big subject… the ideal line. After this, the students were ready to roll out to learn the track. Pretty much ever Read more

Superbike-Coach are using their bikes for those clients who are coming over to California for 1on1 or group coaching. That makes lots of things way easier for the student, because we take care of everything while the student can focus on the trip and coaching:
Bike rental
Bike insurance (Totaled bike, $500 deductible max)
Tire Warmers
Gas
Adjustments
Mechanic
This is perfectly set up in the paddock, where you can hang out and refresh for the next track session with Superbike-Coach.
For 2014 we’ve planned to wrap up a couple of track drill’s in cooperation with Feel Like A Pro, and Keigwins Track Days, which is another partner of the Superbike-Coach Corp. This cooperation is a great benefit for riders, because usually our Track Drill fee is $140, but if you rent a race bike with Feel Like A Pro- we only charge $70 for the coaching. That’s not all… because Feel Like A Pro will reduce the fee on your rental bike by $70 as well if you sign up for Superbike-Coach Track Drill group course!
In other words… you don’t pay any extra for the coaching if you rent a Feel like a pro race bike. Here are the dates and tracks:
