Looks like the second group made good use of the course that was set up. :)

You're welcome!

As you guys look through the pics, see if you can find the bits that I was focused on - eyes, elbows, knees and feet. How did you do?

Oh, and I'm looking for feedback:
- Other than maybe wanting more time (because we kept it to just under two hours), how do you all feel it went?
- Were there drills that you wanted to do longer, shorter or not at all?
- Did you find a particular drill to be especially helpful?
- What could be done differently next time?
 
^^^^^^^^^^ I have the same questions....

Brandon I might do this again and if it's ok with you, steal your lesson plan unless you'd like to be bribed with a man-shot caramel machiato??

Fine with me - that's why I gave it to you. :thumbup

Just do what you can to have a trained observer present. You don't want the blind leading the blind, right?

The PLP was 2 hours long????? Seemed a lot shorter to me. Good job Brandon, you made it Fun and Informative. I liked all the drills. Would have been nice if we had been able to do a hill stop-and-go drill. A "panic" (threshold) braking drill would have been useful if we had more time. Overall it was a very worthwhile experience. Kudos to you and Koi for putting it on.
 
Thanks Koi for organized this and instructed the drill for 2nd. group.Nate and I had a blast.
and it's was nice to see and meet everyone,look forward to do it again.

Yeah, it was. We got started around 8:30am and I left for my ride around 10:30am. All told, there was probably about 90 minutes of on-bike time.

We did work on maximum braking a little bit at the end and I gave feedback, but you can practice it on your own. Just remember to start gently on the front brake and squeeze more as you slow down. :)
