Vickie's first time on her Road King working the slow Maneuvers.  Transitioning up from a Delux

Well done. Good upright posture, nice crisp head turns, smooth handle bar transitions back and forth. Regular parking lot practice and slow riding is where it's at. Just 15 mins a month is all one needs to keep those skills sharp. She will find that as she masters these slow speed skills, she will be much more confident on freeways and open road rides. Keep up the good work!

She looks ready to take on 'The Box' inside the small bike range...

Nice! Slow speed is tough. I'm still aspiring to ride the boxes like this guy did.

^ That's an older video of motors officer Donnie Williams out of Texas. Word is Texas Motors are the ones to beat at comps.
I just bought a used DFW Police bike in Texas a couple months ago. Going to make me faster in the course I'm sure. :)

I use to practice like that at least once a month but the past six months or so I have gotten lazy. That video makes me want to get back at it. Nice job to Vickie. That right there can mean the difference in living and dying when presented with a tricky traffic situation.
