   I had to guess the title of the book and pictures on the cover, but this book was a bit biased “Bicycle Race” and the technical configuration of the route by bicycle rather than techniques that are useful for runners who never venture to track. In the summary of reader of books and magazines, and others, believe that the techniques presented are equally applicable to the street to help and safety of the driver for the day to ride …. day but I was reading the tort.Il are sections of the street covered in book, but for me at least, the trend towards “technology race is not really what I want. A book advanced training ride, it is not, but if your a runner who wants to try to run track techniques and apply them to the street, then this may be the book for you. For me, unfortunately, is not what I expected. It is certainly a book that does what it says on the cover … street racing driving techniques, but certainly not a security source advanced driving techniques for the street. Rating: 2 / 5

   It is hard not to seem ridiculous superlatives about this book, but all the comments here are absolutely right. I try to read everything on the bikes that I can get my hands on, and have been traveling in and out of more than 30 years. This book is for the pilot of the real world, sport bike or cruiser, it will surprise you even if you think you know everything. He has a lot of good ideas that change the way you drive forever. Time and money well spent. I can not wait for the snow to melt to try everything. Rating: 5 / 5

   If you do well with reading and learning, is a must read! If you are considering a sport bike, buy this before you spend thousands of dollars. I read Park, Total Control and ride the bike more competent Hough. Park book is more oriented towards the correct mechanics of riding. Hough book deals with the **** to watch out for the road. The big difference is that it uses examples to explain better the process. They are with a doubt some of the best examples I’ve seen for teaching a sports-related processes. Cycling, good set-up. It addresses safety equipment, suspension set, traction, steering, and probably the greatest fear of gorillas. Moto Let’s face it is the thrill of carving a turn. The management of this kind is a thrill, and not down right frightening is the goal for me. Mr. Park is really hit a home run with his section of the mental dynamics. Get your copy because I’m not ready for mine! Rating: 5 / 5

   I looked at many books for a new driver, who was 48 years and just starting up, I did not learn to race, just drive safely and confidently. Most of the books I looked at were white race, not this one. The writing style, content and information is first class, first division after reading half the book I can relate to the information and feel more comfortable (and not 100%, but ) . I recommend this book for a new or even an experienced pilot. . . . Micro Rating: 5 / 5
