‘I feel more confident’

-

“Michael’s tips were gradual and good. I really appreciate­d him taking the time to walk me round the sections. I’ve learned to put more weight on my legs when I stand up; to push the bike down to do sharper turns and to look ahead. For example, don’t look at the next cone; look up, at the next two or three.

“I’ve done every country in Western Europe on this bike, and quite a few in Eastern Europe. But I haven’t had enough practice at this kind of riding and as I’m starting to do more adventurou­s trips I feel I need it. I’m riding to Portugal soon to go trail riding, and then I’m planning to go to Greece.

“I’m intrigued that Michael suggests bar risers. I always thought they were for people who didn’t get on with a bike. I’m going to get some.

“I’m very satisfied. It’s been a great experience and I feel much more confident now.”
