The second addition to the 15 year old bible to racing is better then the original.Not really its different because it covers mostly the OH SHIT !! Factor. He calls it SR (survival reaction)
He covers reasons why you DONT LISTEN TO YOUR GUT on a bike!
He covers why you dont, micro steer after you have taken a line in a turn.Why your survival reaction (SR) are the exact opposite on a bike .why your SR is to slow down in a turn when you feel you have got to much speed,why staying on the throttle and turning in deeper is the way out .
I think you all need to get this book ,because it covers that part of riding your brain is looking for answers when you think your in trouble! The part of riding only you alone know the terror in your heart when you think the bike is doing things wrong (because you really dont know the bike,the frame the suspension that intimately at limits.
I think it will be a secret weapon for guys that use the race track and a crash preventive book for street riders and im talking cafe riders over say a chopper or touring bike rider.
I think it would, for the 20 dollars it retails for, smooth out your nervousness in turns and in the middle of a turn (The oh shit factor)
Lets face it I dont think there is a guy here that lacks any degree of confidents flying down a straight.The turns separate the experienced from the pack real quick and there my freinds I think this book details every aspect from looking for the point of entry,to when you should brake (and not to early) it details why your reaction to turn early or let off the gas or even trying to correct steering while committed in a turn is THE WRONG reaction.
A bike responds opposite of what you natural SURVIVAL INSTINCTS shout at your brain to do and thats how people crash or are in the back of the pack instead of in the middle or out in front.
I think this book is more of a life saver then anything else because it teaches you ON A BIKE your gut reaction is WRONG.
Save youself get this book NOW !
Im so far behind ,that I think Im in first.
