The explanation of the physics of a bike cornering was the best explanation I have encountered of a surprisingly difficult subject.

I just want to add my thanks for all the organisation that must have gone into this. I have had an amazing weekend. I have learned a lot and feel my riding has improved, which has also boosted my confidence as well.

I went out for a ride with my observer first time after LLR course. I have scored A for the first time in my 9 rides with my observer(Nick Caiger-Smith). I have attached a copy of the sheet. In the SYSTEM section Nick says: GOOD USE OF SYSTEM – WELL DRIVEN – LOOK LEAN & ROLL LAST WEEKEND HAS MADE AN ENORMOUS DIFFERENCE TO YOUR MACHINE HANDLING +  CONFIDENCE.

I cannot recommend this course enough. I ride through Pirbright bends everyday, and manage the corners competently with only the occasional “OMG” moment. I rode through them again today, putting my new knowledge into practice, and had a great ride – not just quicker, but I felt much more confident and more importantly, had the knowledge that if something did go wrong, I would know what to do. I had a great day yesterday, and I can’t thank you and the other volunteers enough, especially as there are so many of you willing to help us. It was a well run course, and you were all very generous in imparting your knowledge and experience with newer riders. I feel that all the feedback and tips will improve my riding, and it was really great to learn this in a safe environment. I hope to do the course again, to really cement these techniques into my everyday riding to make me a safer rider. Hopefully, next time, I can do it in bad weather – after all, this is England. All in all, the course was an absolute bargain when I think about what I gained in terms of knowledge and confidence, and I would have no hesitation in recommending the course to any rider.

just wanted to thank you and the team for the course yesterday, it was enjoyable and picked the always useful information – specially as we are not old bikers,  older yes, but not old to biking.….. It’s just keeping it all there. Lol. We both felt the course was very good, I was probably more interested in the cornering and overtaking, but having said that it does also help to know what happens to the bike when you do certain things, so it was all extra information that I didn’t know.  Bill felt the same really, so sorry can’t give you any constructive criticism. Thank you all very much – a very nice day.

I would just like to add my thanks to you for organising such a great event,being a track virgin myself, friends from TVAM said for the first track day Darley Moor is the perfect venue and they weren’t wrong, great day and even enjoyed the bit of rain.

A well organised day; think I will have to come again and try it out at least once more.

Just wanted to thank everyone involved on the Look, Lean and Roll course yesterday. Even though I know about counter-steering and have been practising Look, Lean and Roll myself during the Observer rides, the ability to listen to the trainers and practise it in a safe environment was invaluable. I learnt so much and gained a huge amount of confidence in both my cornering ability and my bike. Probably the best £40 I have spent on biking and I’ll be doing it every spring after dodgy winter riding to keep my skills honed. Thanks again – really appreciate everyone giving up their morning to help organise and run the course,  

Great weekend and even better than I was told it would be. Think I have also mastered LLR at last with thanks to some advice from Andy! Thanks to all involved,especially Louise and Steve, for making it the best ever biking experience.

I would recommend it to anyone. Every corner is a Look, Lean, Roll corner since I finished the course.

Yesterday I decided to join the Green Team B Run. What a super ride-out, ably led by Rick Watson, and back marked by Sid Collyer. We rode down lovely back roads for mile after mile, with no pressure to speed and no need to map read. We ended up at the recently refurbished Nelsons’ Diner, and I had the best bacon sandwich ever! Thanks to all involved.

Thanks for putting the course on. It’s always good to learn and there were a number of new things that I took away. It was a good re-enforcement of the IAM and police handbooks.  I liked the MiB stuff and it was useful to play with the turning circles and lean angles on the toy bikes which re-enforced the theory. Likewise the bicycle wheel also re-enforced the theory. The objectives and content of the course are very similar to the police bike safe course which is structured as half a day of theory and a few hours of practising what you have learnt. That worked well for me and I think that you could condense the content or change the pace to do something similar.

Just to add my tuppence and to join in with everyone’s enthusiastic applause … wonderful … and I never imagined that the second 7Ws could ever equal the first … but guess what. Tyres beginning to round off nicely with all those incredible curves… must go back and get some photos at some point 😉 just so I can show friends and family what I have been gibbering about for 24 hours. Many thanks to all the event organisers and their helpers … and also so very much to all the friendly people who shared a wonderful weekend.

Just a quick word to say thank you very much for all the effort and organisation you and your team gave to us today on the course. Definately worth the admission fee hehe, you should charge more!! especially as everyone gives their time free. Learnt so much, so thanks again.

Louise / Steve Just to say that I had the most fantastic time over the weekend. I’m just so pleased I was able to come, my new bike is now fully run in and my confidence on it has been improved so much from a great three days riding. Amazing organisation, Amazing Roads, Amazing Weather. Thanks for absolutely everything, I have already block booked all the weekends in the family calendar for the end of Sept/Oct for the next one!

Thanks to you and all of the team for organising and presenting the day – it’s obvious that a mass of work has gone into the preparation. Overall, a very worthwhile event that kept me engaged for the whole day. All club members can benefit from this – associates, full members & observers. The interactive style and discussion generated was great. I found Howie’s stuff on visual perception really interesting & a useful insight into possible reasons for other road user’s behaviour. I also enjoyed the discussions around videos and photos of riding situations. The stuff on bike mechanics was very good and thought provoking too – I’ve now looked up my wheelbase & trail dimensions! I think it’s quite right for this course to concentrate on what all this means to us as riders, rather than dwelling too much on the maths.
