California Superbike School - May 28 - Barber

[Dalewman]

I just signed up for this one day CSS training. At 51, I figure it's now or never to gain some confidence on the track. I used to (15 yrs ago) race in WERA & do track days on a Ninja 250, but I never got any formal instruction beyond the novice group at a track day. I'm not going all-in and renting their BMW S1000, I'll still be on a little Ninja - 400cc this time. Any of y'all taken this school? Any pointers?

Make sure your life insurance is paid up?

All joking aside - good luck and enjoy the class. Love the Barber track but haven't ridden it since I was much younger. That track showed me I needed a steering stabilizer on my '99 R1.

Hope you have good weather!

Not much difference from the track school you have to attend to race Wera or any other organization.

Funny thing, my wife has been much more encouraging since I reminded her my $1million life insurance policy is valid for 7 more years.

I didn't get a lot of info from my racing school, it seems they just wanted to make sure I wouldn't be a danger to those around me.
