Racing GNCC & Motocross ATV Training School

Racing's ATV Riding school students gathered
to learn about cornering |
A small section of field would serve as another
area to hopefully test and teach some cornering
that was slated to be done on the MX track. The
corners reminded me quickly of how slick and challenging
the corners can be at many of the GNCC events.
It was far from what the trainers had planned
however it was having some impact for several
riders who showed almost an immediate improvement.
The day would draw to a close with a brilliant
sunset that had everyone's hopes set on Sunday
being an all out assault on the training.

| Sunday
morning more rain rolled in that made training
outside impossible |
When it rains it pours and we faced storms throughout
the night that put the whammy on any training that
we could have done on day two. An early morning
meeting soon had everyone in agreement that there
just wasn't any point in attempting anything that
wasn't indoors. Bill and his crew quickly stated
that everyone was invited back to the August training
weekend at no charge. The door prizes and drawings
would help ease the pain, especially for Lee Riley
who won a new Yamaha generator! Others left with
some gear bags and backpacks as a reminder that
August would be here in no time.

It sure sounded like they had a lot planned as
things that were unable to take place were laid
out to everyone. From being at other types of
pro level training, there was not much they had
not planned on covering, both for mx and xc riding.
What I did see was a good deal of attention being
paid to every rider and no questions going unanswered.
I have a feeling that if we had been able to stay
on the bars for both days that the trainers would
have really shined. With this much talent on hand,
one would be hard pressed to not get some hands
on expert advice on every aspect of riding and
machine set up.

With
Many of the Top ATV Racing Pro's like GNCC
XC1 Pro Taylor Kiser & XC2 Pro-Am racer
Walker Fowler on hand we can't wait to come
back & learn from these fast GNCC &
AMA ATV MX Pro Racers! |
The next training weekend will be announced for
sometime in August and we would love to be there
once again. The hospitality was all one could
ask for and if you are looking for a great weekend
and some hands on time with the top riders in
the world at a location that offers everything
from a well groomed national motocross track to
9 time GNCC champion Bill Ballance's private XC
track, be sure to get registered early!
