+1 Keith is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. And if you meet him you'll find in the first 5 mins. he knows more about riding and riding theory, than you ever thought possible, I don't care how good you are. Top Bloke! Given me a few hours of free riding advice/instruction several times during the rain delays from back when I was a race reporter. I do find his school is geared more towards track riding.

I've read 1 and got 2 but not read it yet. I'd say 1 is more track-biased because it talks a lot about lap times and reference points, things you don't have much use for when you're riding a road you might not know very well. From what little I know, book 2 is more like the stuff they teach you at the school. Keith and the other guys and gals at the school are among the last people you'd call up themselves. Too many people in the biking world are just so pompous because they're an ex-racer or whatever as though they had two nobs or something, it's good to meet people so serious about doing what they do who are still friendly and helpful to even the most ham-fisted spod.

i have read a bit of vol 2 and watched the dvd, alot of good stuff there imo, just alot to take in at once as well, you wanna pick a point practice it, then move on to the next imo, rather than all at once.
