The Wheelie School

I'm considering paying a visit to these fellas...

http://www.thewheelieschool.co.uk/

Ignore the ropey web site, I have it on good authority from those who really know (and several ex-students) that he is The Man when it comes to teaching stunting.

No idea when yet, but anyone interested?

From what I've heard Si you don't need to go mate!

i'd be interested but funds are a bit tight at the moment. I've got loads of carp to put on ebay so I'll see what I can get from that

Re: The Wheelie School

That looks mint, I would consider it dependant on dates :cool:

Re: The Wheelie School

I've just had a read of the website. It is pretty much telling me not to bother. So I guess I wont. Having also seen the contraption at the back of the bike I would just spend all my time seeing how long I could drag the bar at the back on the ground. :geek::smt077

Besides, it'd mean a whole day away from your new Mondeo.

Unfortunately I have to wait until end of September for the VOLVO.

Re: The Wheelie School

Did this a couple of years ago, really top day, and was doing nice controlled wheelies by the end of the day. Allowed me to understand the process and translate it to the SV as well.

Highly recommended.
