    Good stuff here Guys, thanks for the info.
    I've been riding off and on all my life. I'm an old man now but, still ride a StreetGlide and a WideGlide.
    I grew up riding mini-bikes, dirt bikes, small street bikes, then larger street bikes.
    I've been lucky and only have had a few crashes. The worst was on the highway where a car cut me off, I crashed, and only broke my foot, I got lucky.
    Jerry, thanks for all your videos. I appreciate them all.
    Maybe someday I can ride out to Florida, meet you and take your course.

    Kyle Wyman and Yamaha champ school are great! Yesterday I was going through a nice turn and a car wanted to pull out of their driveway, so I wondered, did the car see me? Or does the curve obstruct its view?
    Champ school teaches that you should start braking as soon as you are nervous. It sounds simple but it's *very* good advice. And it teaches that braking mid-turn is fine if done correctly.
    It felt so much safer to be already braking *before* I even knew if the car would enter the road or not, because this way, if the car had entered the road (it didn't) then it would have been easy to avoid an accident.

      I remember a similar situation in the past, I was leaning in a nice turn, saw a truck moving in a driveway, wasn't sure if he had seen me or not, but I couldn't risk it so I had to reduce speed. But at the time I was taught to never brake while turning, so I straightened the bike. That meant that I had to brake very hard to avoid going off the pavement.
      What Champ school teaches is much safer.
      I braked gently while continuing the corner, this was much easier and safer than what I did in the past. It gave me more time to see if the car enters the road or not. It also gave the car more time to see me. And if it would somehow still decide to enter the road, then I would have been at an appropriate speed to handle it.

    This is keeping it real. The best thing is that no matter how long that one has been riding with the miles on. There is more respect earned and given when one humbles themselves and understand the effort made to improve helps all. This has been excellent and critique was impeccable. I wish all a continued safe, pleasurable, and better ride.

    Both of these gentlemen teach skills that “all” riders need to learn to be safe riding. Taking slow speed and track speed courses improves your confidence and skill level exponentially! You can learn so much faster when you know what the instructors are teaching you you can literally “take to the bank. “ Once you are shown the techniques, it is on you to practice, practice, practice. And, these skills are perishable. Take courses annually.

    Absolutely as good as I thought it would be, Hearing these conversations and the coaching at the end,makes me realize how much more I can learn! I still believe this is the best content for 2023, but then again Jerry just keeps delivering the best training in person on line and via videos!!

    Thank you Jerry for bringing this content so important and helpful I often find my self debating where to start slowing down before the curbs. I was able to understand that holding the break for 6 to 8 ft will put the rider in a batter position to aim the bike in the direction you want go. Very much appreciate!!!

    After having ordered your RLAP course and practicing low speed maneuvers. Then watching this makes me want to go learn more with Kyle to become a better well rounded rider. No such thing as learning too much. TY Jerry for posting the full conversation with Kyle.

    Great video Jerry! This truly illustrates the best rider is always striving to master and perfect new techniques. I really enjoyed the last part of this, the video analysis of your lap. Great way to compare what you’re doing to what you’re feeling at that instant as they’re always different.
    I’ve done the “Champ University “ their on line, interactive course and found it very helpful in understanding the theory and techniques taught by the school and am looking forward to the time when I can actually attend one of the live classes. I highly recommend Champ U.
    Thanks for sharing!

    I agree with the comments here about riders using the best technique available to them as soon as it is possible to teach them the technique. As a former tennis coach I know it is hard for some students to change an ingrained practice so why teach one thing and then change it, if the best practice can be introduced from the beginning then that is what we should be aiming to do.

    Thanks for sharing this sir. I might have to take a peek at the CHAMPU. I never knew of these programs. interesting watching you run through the track. never too old to learn.

    Superb! So much can be learned from the instructor's feedback on your actual performance.
    It may seem counter intuitive, but slowing down more than you feel is necessary prior to the corner actually allows you to go faster and safer. But obviously you can't slow down too much either. Getting that feel for the correct speed for each corner is a huge experience gain of race track practice.

    I wonder what I had done of wrong, I have done it two times in ten years. I was stuck inside the curve without any possible way to accelerate because a car had followed me really too close, 2 feet max of my rear wheel. It was impossible to ride faster without crashing in the car. The car driver cut my lane in angle. Actually, I never ride so close inside a curve, I learned to ride a motorcycle, I know how to turn. In this situation, I rode very too slowly and I was stuck inside the curve. This is not a big advantage to follow me so close. I don't see the car with my acceleration after the curve so the driver is always far behind. That looks a dangerous behaviour. I don't know where I did my error. I ride like a book. Actually, this is the kind of curve where people forget to use their brakes with many crashes.
