    New Rider Coaching SUNDAY 8-25-13

    Is there any more interest in a new rider coaching session for the end of August? I've noticed it dropped off everyone's radar as the riding season progressed.

    Changing location for this one. Boulder County. Again, this is for newish riders and especially someone uncomfortable with the twisties. At this point in the season I would consider someone who just started riding this spring.

    I am comfortable with a class size of about 5 riders, unless I can round up some experienced riders to help.

    I'd love some lessons, I know I'm not fast through the corners at all. That said, if someone less experienced wants a place, I'm willing to back out as I do feel comfortable on the bike and in the turns at least.

    We're at 4 now, I can take a couple more. PMs will be going out by the weekend to participants. If you are in this thread so far you are penciled in. Let me know if you drop out so others can join.

    I'm new to Colorado and new to this forum. Wish I had joined sooner to be part of this session coming up. I did track days when I lived in Virginia at Summit Point - Shenandoah track in WV but I'm still a new "Intermediate" rider on the track. I live in Stapleton and haven't been able to find other riders on this side of Denver. Any advice on what groups to join and ride with?

    Everyone on the board is kinda spread around, most of the rides happen on the West side of down, because frankly that's where the best riding is. I'm sure there are some people over in your area also. Post up on the New Members Intro thread

    Well if you're an intermediate track rider you might also want to check out the lapping days at HPR.

    I used to ride summit main. Too much concrete on shenny for my liking. Come check out HPR some time, it's a really sick track, without all the maintenance problems of Slummit point
