During the Long Beach Motorcycle show, I stopped by a booth and picked up a flyer for this riding school (http://www.gopolen.com/index.php). Anyone been or heard anything about it?
Maximum of 6 riders per one-day class. Less than $600 bucks for the whole day with a four-time champ. Sounds pretty good.
Buy a new Duc superbike and get the class, an EZ-up, tire warmers, chairs, and a watch for free. Just got to spend $15k! :laughing6-hehe: I guess if you're going to buy one, might as well get some stuff for free.
I was scheduled to ride with him at Barber last year during AHRMA. We got in one session in the rain before the downpore became unsafe to ride in (and neither of us wanted to risk the RC45 anymore than we already had...)
He does a unique form of instruction in that he hooks you up with a radio on and rides with you and talks as he works with you. Based in the little time I had with him, I would definitely do it again! It was a blast despite the weather. He is a neat guy, very knowledgeable, and damn fast. How often do you get to ride with a World Champion??
On top of that, they refunded most of my money for the day. They are a class act. Highly recommend it if you have the opportunity. :cheerleader:
