Professional Training

Ok, I've paid for professional training for quite a bit of things in life.

-swimming
-motorcycling
-car racing
-surfing
-shooting
-photography
-languages
-fitness
-brazilian jiu jitsu

I'm sure there are others but I can't remember quickly. No matter, these experiences have taught me the value of learning something from a pro. I mentioned on FB earlier in the week how I feel sad about neglecting my photography. Watching a mnt bike movie on tv last night had me missing other stuff, not necessarily biking. But definitely I've missed doing jiu jitsu and riding motorcycles more than I have been.

With that in mind I'm excited desert season will be happening soon (though I don't have a dirt bike, just Super D does....). And with that class coming up, my skills should be getting a little better as well. And since I like learning I found two other motorcycle related schools I'd like to attend, and with these in the San Diego area it makes doing so much easier.

1. Wheelie University.$500. Spend a whole Saturday on someone's bike learning to wheelie under their eye and on bikes with a limiter so you can't flip them over. I've been told I'm a quick learner of wheelies but I want to do more, better. Confidence and experience.

2. Trails in Temecula. $250. In a private riding location, with trails and obstacles set up to help you learn trials riding on a true trials bike. Low cost, fun and unique.

So as a "professional" motorcycle instructor myself, though of only the very most basic things, these classes really intrigue me and I'd love to take them!
