Do I have to start at Level One?
Yes everyone does. This is not a reflection of your
ability it's just how the School works. It has to start
somewhere and we call that place Level One.
If you have already completed levels 1 & 2 during the
previous year or at other CSS camps you may choose to
enroll directly into level 3.
I recently went to what was supposed to be a training
day and it basically turned into a lot of guys seeing
how fast they could go around a track, with little or no
input from the "instructor” who gives you personal
tuition as a group of 3-4.
We are a Cornering School and work just on Cornering
techniques. You will attend 5 to 6 classroom sessions
and have 5 to 6 on track sessions as well as off track
training. You will be assigned an Instructor for the
whole day and they work with you and 2 other students
each time you go on track. It is a school, not a Track
day. Anyone who treats it like a track day gets sent
home.
Do I need to have special tyres on my bike or will
standard road tyres do?
As we will expect you to ride at 80% or less (so you
have enough attention to learn and apply new
techniques), standard road tyres are fine as long as
they pass our safety check. For regulations of this
safety check we do on your motorcycle before a school
day, Click here
Is level 1 for complete beginners?
Level 1 is for everyone that has a license. If you can
let the clutch out without stalling (most of the time…)
and do the basic control actions on the bike, you’re
ready for level 1. Although all riders start at level
One, where possible we try our best to put you in a
group of similarly skilled riders so the difference
between the fastest and slowest in the group is as small
as possible.
What happens if it rains?
If it rains…we get wet! The skills are just as
applicable in the wet as they are in the dry and
whatever weather we get on the day is the weather you
learn to apply the skills in. We run, rain or shine… |
