RE: Ride like a Pro

Bought the DVD, went to Jerry class in FLA and then bought the surving the mean streets and the beginning video for my wife. Facts are yuo can learn something from all of them. just Buy ti and enjoy. With a little practice it will boost your confidence tremendously.

RE: Ride like a Pro

Very good DVD. Buy it today then find a parking lot and start to practice.

Being able to handle a big bike at low speeds is an awesome skill anyone can develop. All it takes is practice. And it's really cool to be able to confidently whip a tight u-turn on the street when there are a bunch of people around. It's fun to show off sometimes.

riding a motorcycle is a perishable skill that demands a constant self analysis. If you ever think you know it all and don't need further training, you have trouble coming.

So true. One of the things I tell my RLAP students is that they need to practice the techniques, untilthey are all second nature. Then I tell them that they need to keep up the skills so they don't diminish. Most of my students WANT more practice. I hadone ridertell methathe would be willing to pay$25.00 just to come out and ride the exercises on his own.So now, I open the range up for one hour before a scheduled class. The first six students to show up and pay $25.00 get to ride the range and practice all the exercises forthat wholehour.

When my wife decided to start ridding again, I bought it based on what I had read on this forum. I've been ridding since '66 and found it to be a great DVD. I still review it every so often.

Surviving the Mean Streets isn't that great. I hoped to pick up a tip or two, and I might have, but it's not anywhere near as helpful as Ride Like a Pro. Depending on how much $20 means to you, you might choose to get it or skip it.

But definitely get RLAP!
