Copper Mike and myself spent the 6th on a go kart race track with 11 other riders. Every kind of bike was there. We had signed up for this course to improve our skills, even tho both of us have ridden for many years and taken several classes. This course has turns, switchbacks, and a long straightaway. It was really worth it. We did over 50 miles riding the course. The instructors are well known riders. The lead instructor set up the original training for the motor officers of the Oregon State Police and they still use it today. This class is also the same training any motor officer takes, they just use their work bikes and we use our fun bikes. I read off the temp on the track and it came up at 118 degrees. It was a very hot day in Pacific N.W.
I have attached some pics of the bikes & course. They would have you run the course both directions and also would change it by cutting off some of the routes. It was very good training and while you learned a lot, you need to go forward and continue practicing. I recommend a similar class for anyone.
