Report

The staff there is pretty nice, and some of them speak in english.
Each day is done for 18 people, divised in 3 level groups, A B C, C being for beginners. You will be asked your level, but don't worry
everyone does basically the same training.

Also the bikes are mostly Honda VT250 with racing-style handles, a bit ruined here and there, but they still run fine.

The day is usually scheduled as :

  • Learn to drive the bike with the foot peg, standing up on the bike
  • Apply that technique while seated
  • Put the knee down while making left turns on a round small-track, while learning the breaking part.
  • Same but on the right
  • Lunch break
  • Apply the previously learned techniques on a small track, both clockwise & counter-clockwise.
  • Do the long track ( which is small but still …)

The day is quite long ( 8:30 - 16:30 ) so bring food & drinks as the nearest combini is at around 5 minutes by bike/car.
