Awesome day of slow speed in Albany, 24 punters were out to improve and refresh the key fundamentals of their slow speed skills. Heaps of laughs, heaps of learning and heaps of improvement by everyone. Days like these it almost doesn’t seem like work, hardest part of the day is writing the social media posts 🙄
As always thanks to @akltransport for working with us to put these days on bringing the giveaways and the snacks, the snacks are always my favourite part of the day.

Pretty sure I did my restricted test with him not too long ago and we were going onto the motorway and in traffic and we were going very very slow and so slow I was wobbling. Through the coms I just hear him saying find that balance and telling me to go slower. I found balance for a second then lost it again and had to foot down. Was honestly a great fun part during downtime between the ride and the test. Sure enough tho he was just fine going that slow but I was wobbling 🤣
Where in Albany?
I’m coming!

Stoked to hear this from David after completing a Ride Forever Silver course in Wellington with Chris.
Great riding, good coaching, plenty of time to take it all in — that’s what these days are all about. Building confidence, sharpening skills, and making riding even more enjoyable.
Cheers for the awesome feedback David, hope to see you back for another ride soon 👊🏍️

Another fantastic practical maintenance session for this bunch. All of them got grubby doing routine maintenance of the GSX, Z400 and the Streetfigher. All lubed up, adjusted and ready to go.
The bonus being they all left with an awesome puncture repair kit too.
See ya in April! ... See MoreSee Less
