Today was WMST’s first Women’s only More Cornering Class and we couldn’t have been more lucky to have mother nature shine on us as we learned techniques to apply to those dreaded corners, turns and twisties. Chris and Oly showed the gals the importance of body positioning to help guide the bike smoothly through turns/corners, looking through a turn and not target fixating, using peripheral vision to process important/non-important information, breathing on the brake to minimally slow the bike (trail braking) and getting comfortable enough to increase your speed around those turns. I was so proud of the gals as the day went on and the light bulbs went on one by one, your speed and confidence increased and I could see that you were going to be testing all those new techniques on the way home.

This was not only WMST’s first Women’s only More Cornering Class, but it was the first one for MotoVixens as well. Please comment about what you liked, didn’t like and want to see as part of a future class or event. Don’t worry, it will be between just us gals and pipe in even if you didn’t attend the class and there is something you would like to see in the future. Looking forward to seeing you all at the Track day on June 10th and other future events in the near future. Ride on Vixens!
