Bit hard to say Grant. I was getting smoked by a little fat kid on a KTM 80 in our 'chasey' races all day (I couldn't even catch the little prick to kick him off >:() so I don't know when it'll all kick in......

Yes it was Hoony. Track was fantastic (despite the big dumping of water that we all got) and the weather was perfect (as always.... ;))

Lee said I was fantastic and hinted at a factory ride but negotiatons ended when I stated that I only like to work a coupla hours a day and only do three lap races ::).

I did a BCP school last year, most has gone out the window, but the starting technique they teach, I stuck with, and works great for me now.
Takes  some getting used to though.

Yeah. It feels a little crazy but when you do it right it works cool. I'm gunna try and stick with it.
The most outstanding thing for me was flat corners. I was always all over the shop with 'em. Now I reckon' I got them licked! ;)

yep, i agree did Lee's school at Broadford a few years back and he catered it for the VCM & Viper boys, i had the flat corners nailed and yes the starting drill is unusual but bloody hell does it work well when you nail it right ( got me into 2nd place in the moderns on my old banger at Barrabool 2 years or so ago till i faded after  2 laps).

Riding schools will go where ever you want them too!!
Mossy usually needs 20 riders to cover a WA trip.We scored a junior grant so it cheaper for the riders.
Have booked in three times this year for our club, and no we are not slow learners ;)  ;D  just have people wanting the mx coaching in the south west !!
cheers A
Best is in the West !!

Nah, we may be on the grid together one day, secret squirrel business. Oh alright then,

Flat corner:-  pitch it slideways like a speedway bike and keep it pinned, taking rest of field out but you play on  ;).

Start drill, 3rd gear full throttle with your legs on the cross bar pad to keep the front down.  :D
