best race school to *learn*??
Discussion
Hi all
I was planning on doing a Ron Haslam day in Sept. I've been riding about 20 yrs, but wanted to do a race school to learn to be a 'better' rider (and hopefully to also become a faster one) ie body position etc.
On reading the reviews on here - it sounds like fun (and it's nice to use their bikes and gear), but just following an instructor, how much do you learn. You may go faster by the end of the day, but if your body position is still crap, that's no good.
Would the Jamie Witham day be better? I know I'd need to use my own stuff, but that's OK, if it's going to teach me to be a better (+ faster) rider.
Or the CSS - although it's expensive at £409 for the day (if you use your own bike. bike hire is an extra £250).
many thanks for your thoughts.
