Pete Akers Smith delivered the first of his Group Riding Skills coached sessions on Saturday March 21st at Eaton Bank Academy. The participants started with braking and cornering techniques before going on the following wheels and riding side by side in close proximity. Each session was finished off with a short pursuit race, to put the skills to a competitive test. All 15 participants had a great day.
There are two more sessions, one on March 28th, again at Eaton Bank and a final session at the Rob Holden closed road circuit Tameside, Manchester on Easter Sunday April 5th. Pete says that we hope to repeat the sessions. for other club members as required.
