The Pace

With a lot of us back in the saddle after a long winter and some still waiting for the weather to get just a bit warmer and the roads to clear, here is some good riding advice. I saw some of this a few years ago and then couldn't find it again. Last night I saw the link in another forum.

The Pace focuses on bike control and de-emphasizes outright speed. Full-throttle acceleration and last minute braking aren't part of the program, effectively eliminating the two most common single-bike accident scenarios in sport riding. Cornering momentum is the name of the game, stressing strong, forceful inputs at the handlebar to place the bike correctly at the entrance of the turn and get it flicked in with little wasted time and distance. Since the throttle wasn't slammed open at the exit of the last corner, the next corner doesn't require much, if any, braking.

I think a lot of us are there already, but a good reminder before hitting the road doesn't hurt (roadrash does).

Absolutely! A good kick in the pants or cuff to the head just sharpens the Spidey Senses! Thanks!
