More books about riding on road and track

 

 

Survival Skills says:

"With 'Soft Science', Keith Code opened up an area rarely touched before or since in motorcycle sport riding - the relationship between rider and machine.

Heavy going in places. and liable to leave the reader with a headache at time. For the dedicated only."

 

 

 

 

 

 

Survival Skills says:

"An interactive version of 'A Twist of the Wrist'".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Survival Skills says:

"Another book on riding technique from the prolific David Hough".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Survival Skills says:

"Sport Riding Technique, although the name of Kenny Roberts is large on the cover, is actually written by Nick Ienatsch - Roberts contributes a foreword. Ienatsch is a highly respected US motorcycle journalist, and creator of 'The Pace', a much-copied article about a style of effortless riding on the road.

Some people have suggested the detail contained in the book isn't in-depth enough, but it's pertinent to road riding and digestible in bite-sized chunks, and compared with Keith Code's books, it's far more readable".

 

 

 

 

 

 

Survival Skills says:

"Andy Ibbott, the author, is probably better known as the UK director of Keith Code's Superbike School in the UK, and this book, published in association with MotoGP rights holder Dorna SL, is a practical guide to motorcycle racing technique, and aimed at racing and track day enthusiasts at all levels.

From starting and accelerating to braking, cornering, overtaking and even crashing, this book combines expert advice from an experienced coach with tips and anecdotes from top riders."

 

 

 

 

 

 

Survival Skills says:

"Reg Pridmore is a former AMA racing champion, who now runs the well-known CLASS Motorcycle Schools in the United States.

This book pulls together his race experience with the elements of his track, road and classroom training, showing how to focus on control in cornering, braking, and acceleration. A long-time proponent of the value of body-steering, Pridmore's insightful text explains how this misunderstood technique can help everyday riders become smoother, better riders.

He also explains the danger of the wide line, something that many advanced riders in this country use without really considering the risk.

Other sections on street strategies and riding gear make this a comprehensive how-to riding skills book for anyone looking to improve their skills."

 

 

 

 

Survival Skills says:

"'Ride Hard, Ride Smart' is a booked aimed at riders looking to further their skills after basic training. Pat Hahn explores his famous "three degrees of separation" concept and shows how risk analysis (as explored in my own CDROMs) can be used to rate every motorcycling activity from 1 (safely home in bed) to 10 (moments from certain death!).

The book is full of useful interpretation of statistical data from the US, with strategies suggested that help the rider deal with the risks of riding - Pat shows you how to keep your riding between the two extremes.
