For those of us who like to practice a lot but not spend so much time protecting the guards.

One of the BEST videos around. I use their techniques and enjoy the ride so much more...especially when navigating slow areas. I do plan on attending the course in NC either in July or Aug when I return from TDY in Indiana.

Ride safe, Mike

Love the video I was just messing around the last couple weeks w/ it again...helps keep you fresh. I have had friends say "oh I can't do that", (kinda like rubbing you belly and tapping your head and chewing gum at the same time) watching the video alone won't really give you the concept of what he is telling you to do, until you realize oh yeah I can turn my head that far without looking down.

V is the most current. The way he does his videos, you don't have to go back and buy previous ones. V covers all the past stuff and it has some newer stuff too

I just got it in the mail today, ordered it Friday...I just watched the first few minutes of it & already have a better undrstanding of slow riding...I have never had anyone tellme "If the bike is in motion have both feet on the boards" but when he said it in the video it makes perfect sense.
