Many of you may already know, but maybe not. American Supercamp will be visiting the San Jose fairgrounds and doin both a regular 2 day Supercamp as well as a special one day "bring your own bike."

The weekend kicks off with the "bring your own bike" on July 9th from 2pm to 10pm. We will be working on the short track there and will be welcoming all types of bike including 100's and mad dogs. Should be a ton of fun! $200 and ride, ride, ride!!!

The regular 2 day school will be going down on the 10th and 11th, also from 2pm -10-pm. This is a regular Supercamp so everyone will be riding our TT-R125 school bikes. We will be starting on a small oval appropriate for the 125's on the infield and moving on to TT action. AND, it tis a one time "Return to San Jose" special of $400. Sign up NOW at that price. Seems the boss has a soft spot for San Jose since the days of the "Barn."

Anyone out there that has come out to Supercamp can tell you the benefits. All of you that have come give us shout out. Let everyone know what they stand to miss if they don't take advantge of this.

Holy Crap that was fun, Danny Walker puts on a great camp. We had Josh Hayes and his lovely/fast wife Melissa Paris as guest instructors in addition to some really talented kids. Drills were all on dirt but the street and track application of the techniques were evident. We had a lot of video examples (mostly road racing but some sumo and MX as well) to watch but the following video really brought it all together for me, especially about 1/2 though when Nicky starts putting his knee down.

Highly recommend this clinic!
 
Glad to hear we didn't completely waste your time! Something to think about... While L.A. may not be next door the Dec. dates are already on the schedule. Riding is like a never ending staircase, there is always a next step. We just need to be willing to try and take it.

Holy crap - wish I'd seen this before. Never done it, but looks like a blast!! Can't wait 'til the next time it comes around.
 
Deafenitely dew et!! Never ridden dirt and came in looking to improve my street riding. Curriculum is solid plus all the instructors had great tips directed at the mistakes I was making that substantially improved my riding throughout the 2 days. Now I love dirt and can use many of the same principles on the street & track.
There's no way I would have been able to learn what I did (by pushing the traction limits, feeling the effects of weight transfers via body movement & acceleration, brake, clutch application, etc.) on the street without serious injury and costly repairs to the bike. Here, I was able to not only do just that but also learn how to fall, get up, and keep doing it again till I got it right.........and they worry about the repairs. :thumbup
They're a great team, super-friendly, no attitudes.
