ART Feedback

Comments and feedback from the Advanced Rider Training Days:

“As a beginner to track days I must say I am very impressed by such a professionally organised event.  In particular I got great value out of the track walk and attending a brief after each session”.

“The theory at the track is great, tho I wasn’t with group1. However I remember the first theory session I went to very well because i was way out of my comfort zone and even kinda scared.

I needed to hear three things (and i did)

1. It wasn't a race

2. There would be staggered starts.                             so we weren't all going to tear off in a mad bunch

3. No passing the marshalls for the first 2 laps             because I was afraid I'd be slow I would have gone out like a bat out of hell right from the start. To find we would be lead out for the warm up laps was a relief.

This calm careful approach is what makes the day safe and is the reason I keep coming back”.

“ I had a wonderful day and I think what makes it, is the personal commitment and open communication from the Instructors  in making sure your happy and building your skills. I had Instructors offer to follow them to see the lines  and then follow to me to see how well I applied it, and other times  your not even aware they are doing this until they catch up with after the session and let you know where they think your at and what can be improved. Being in the novice category this type of training gives you the ability to able to test the limits with your bike and yourself  in the safest possible environment….as I get older I don’t want to hurt myself anymore!  I am now riding with a heap more confidence which is grounded in a sound base  and not just bravado as before.”

“Really enjoyed my first ever track day @ Puke on Sat!  The instructors were fantastic - what a positive bunch of guys! totally encouraging especially to a new boy feeling very nervous and out of his depth.

Felt totally different at the end of the day and now looking forward to April 18!  The weather and organisation was exceptional so thank you all.”

“We had a ball at the art day. I never thought ART could be so much fun”

"Just thought I’d write a short thank you, learning has never been so enjoyable.

After only 3 years on the road, learning from instructors with so much experience made attending the novice course a must for all new riders.

I have already been applying techniques such as breaking, cornering, smoothness, throttle control to the road and it has improved my abilities after a single session, which is testament to the great instructors you have.

Looking forward to attending further courses, would like it to rain next time though as I need to build up confidence and learn techniques for winter riding."
