Way to go! Go attack all the stages since u r nw in good form!

 

4.02 very relax one lah. A few rounds of test route orientation followed by pillion riding. Nothing much to worry here. Except for the weather. The rain is on and off today.

[Weddings]

Haha yea hope my partner not heavy. Dun think it's gonna rain. Will update you my progress!

[Weddings]

Bro, u r in the zone!

 

5.01 consists of 2 parts. Part 1, u hav to ride thru the circuit with not more than 20pts. Part 2, is the pillion riding. Dosen't matter wat course as long as u gif more throttle to move n more foot brake to stop. Unless Bigfoot happens to b ur pillion...

 

I goin for SP on 27 Jan Thur, Session 6(1710). We can meet up if u plan to take ur 5.01 on tat day.

[Veil]

nice work there. and yea SP is better in terms of you able to select what areas u want to practice in. There will be instructors stationed there too so they too would be able to assist you and give you tips or check up on your technique

Welcome back! Tats the spirit! Dun give up! Care to share wat went thru ur mind before, durin n after ur 3.01? It wil be a good source of reference for others.

 

Hey there! Alright I'll share! For 3.01, I was more nervous than usual because its the narrow plank n pylon slalom! I am quite weak in controlling and balancing all along, plus i always fail during my first try, so kinda expected that I will fail that try =x (Okay i know thats a very negative mindset! Should stay positive!) I was quite scared that I will fall during the pylon slalom before the lesson cause it looks quite scary when you see people turning so fast!

 

Anyway, after the warm up round the circuit, its time for the real thing! I was super nervous that I can feel my hand shivering -.- Once my bike got up the narrow plank, I totally blank out! My shivering hand result in I cant maintaining a steady throttle. Think I went too slow and bike wobble and drop down the plank! I totally stun and panic and totally no time to react, my first reaction was put down my left leg! I didnt even turn off the throttle and apply break! As a result, I fell from the bike =\ Lesson learnt: Don't panic even if you drop off the plank, just carry on and move off. Can always try again the next round! Panic = worse. End up got cut on my ankle =.=

 

Good thing I got my fav instructor that day! He is very patient and nice. Unlike some instructor with attitude problem and make sarcastic remarks. He keep reminding me to look further ahead, and to control speed when on plank. Go up a little fast, use foot brake to slow down, release abit more clutch to speed up etc, and turn handle bar to move left or right when bike turns. After afew rounds kinda master it, but still need more practice!

 

Next the problem is pylon slalom! The one i fear most right from the start. I either hit the cone down or touch the cone lol! And my timing was more than 6 seconds, too slow. I am quite a timid person so I didn't really dare to go too fast when turning. But i guess this lesson is to push your limits and be more daring! Just do it! After trying to be a little more daring to turn more and go faster, I realise actually its not that scary! The irritating is I think I kept going to near the cone and the back of my bike touch the cone when turning.

 

All in all, I felt more confident at the end of the lesson but because I failed more than I sucessfully clear the 2 items, I needa repeat 3.01 again >

Defensive Riding Theory 1.01(100mins): $8.03 DONE!

7.30am. Also known as PPL. I duno hw the acronym was derived but it sounds abit corny to me. A few bike accident clips was shown n discussed. Instructor oso teaches us hw to identify, forecast, recognize, react towards hazards. Message: It pays to always ride with a defensive attitude.

 

Defensive Riding Theory 1.02(100mins): $8.03 DONE!

9.20am. Tis lesson focus more on a rider's reaction time n ability to see a hazard beforehand. And the riding simulator was fun! I was asked to "ride" fast thru bends w/o doing any braking. I started off attacking at speed of 50 then 60, 80 n 100km/h! Lastly at 110km/h, i lost it to centrifuge.

So sori. I wil repost it. Hws ur 3.02 then?

Defensive Riding Theory 1.03(100mins): $8.03 DONE!

11.30am. Today touches more on a rider's attitude, his riding attire n his handling of a unfamilar bike. It wants us to stay calm if another rider provoke or challenge for a race. A potential accident could be waiting n definitely not worth at all. A proper helmet, gloves n jeans are the minimum gear to be in. I can picture the injuries if i crash at 50km/h wearing slippers, bermuda n improper helmet. Tips n advices from the previous 2 lessons were revised. Reali helpful stuffs here.
