Shane Watts DirtWise THIS WEEKEND: May 21 & 22 2011

Shane Watts DirtWise School
May 21 & 22, 2011

According to the latest DirtWise newsletter I just received, Shane still has 2 slots open for the class this weekend.

The class is in Warrensburg, MO. A few of us attended last year, and all of us felt it was very, very worthwhile. If you want to improve your motorcycle handling skills, Shane can teach you.

Cost is $360. If you think that's expensive, I can tell you the 4 of us that attended last year didn't want to pay that much either, but after the 2 days of training, we felt we got more than our money's worth.

FYI: Shane is conducting his "Hardcore" advanced school this Thur & Fri in Warrensburg -- it is sold out.

What Troy said.

I went, reluctant that I would get my money's worth.
I finished thinking I had gotten my money's worth.
Later in the summer I knew I had gotten more than my money's worth considering my improved riding ability.

I couldn't agree more! Heck I can even ride a wheelie now and I know how to correctly "loop it out" at the top of a hill :D

Here's a recommendation from someone we all know:

I want to pass onto Shane my sincere gratitude for the excellent training I received at the DirtWise school! The 2 days were full of a lot of "aha!" moments for me. It was amazing how 10 minutes of explanation, a 5 minute demo, and then a personal correction or two from Shane was the difference between struggling for years and finally "getting it".

I am so encouraged by the fact I can practice almost all of the techniques at slow speed and low RPM in an open, safe environment. I don't have to risk my life pushing my limits at high speed in the tight woods to become a better rider! As I comfortably master these techniques and make them habit at slow speed, I will naturally be able to ride faster and safer.

I'm a better rider thanks to Shane!

I also wanted to let Shane know I read the story about Rionn. The correct perspective is important, eh? Something I always say is, "it's all relative". Rionn's story definitely makes that clear. It's easier now for me to understand Shane's positive attitude about breaking his back in Warrensburg--he understands things could be a lot worse. There but for the grace of God, go I.
