      I am starting a new topic here to keep this current and at the forefront—–

      We have about 15-16 sign-ups on this PCS (Precision Cornering Workshop).   Not good.  I spoke to Walt Fulton today and discussed some options.

      To reiterate, this is valuable training—–the normal StreetMasters rate is $390.  We are being give a 20% discount, to $312.   Plus (if you are an MOA member), a $100 training award following the completion of the event = $212.

      Please take advantage of this—-we are doing this for the Club.   I know that I could have used this training (as well as any training) years ago, and honestly, you would spend this much on a farkle or two.   Or auxiliary lights.  Or insurance.    This is much more valuable, in my humble opinion.

      The best way to reserve your spot is to sign up on the Ride List and reserve your hotel room. 

      We wanted this for the SCBMWRC but an option is to extend this offer to any BMW bike owner who wants to participate.  We will discuss this at our next Board and General Meeting. 

      Walt, feel free to chime in!

          I did a similar training day with the New England Riders 3 years ago when I lived in Massachusetts. Truly the best thing I ever did. Learned so much about how to handle my bike – definitely made me a better and safer rider. This kind of training is completely different than the typical parking lot course (low-speed skills). Training at speed is a different set of skills and perhaps even more important. Doesn’t matter what you ride. I’ve got a K-bike, but there were RTs, GSs, and an S1000RR in the course I did back east (also HDs, Wings, Victories, Teneres, Concourses, Street Triples, etc!). This training was so valuable, I jumped at the opportunity to do it again with SCBMWRC and StreetMasters. At $212, it’s a bargain. Highly recommended. Sign-up, you won’t regret it!

                Another note to encurage those that have not taken this class at all or recently;
                .
                – First, trainging is continuous and this class, particularly at this price, is even better the second or third time to hone and continue to improve skills. Think of it like for your golfers, who does not go to the driving range or have a coach tune up.
                .
                – Second, and really cool. Streetmasters has on the road training classes, “Tour and Train”, which are a weekend of on the road taining with the coaches. These Tour and Train classes are awesome, held in great areas on great roads. BUT, Streetmasters, in an effort to allow Tour and Train classes to be most effective, only allows classes of the Streetmasters closed course classes, like ours coming up, to attend the Tour and Train weekends. You can attend a Tour and Train weekend on Streetmasters schedule, or if we have enough graduates in our club, we can schedule a club Tour and Train weekend!

                Go for it!

                            A. She just found out that Streetmasters is not a Track Day!

                              I’m registered for the course. I will be staying at the luxurious TownPlace Suites Lancaster as I need to use up my Marriott awards.

                                As of this afternoon, we are at 15 sign-ups (Tom White is the only one not on the Ride List, (for Tom W’s reasons). Please promote this to our club members, as it is possible we will open this up to other BMW riders not in the Club so that we fill the class.
