Come ride Sachsenring and the Italian Alps with me!!!

Wooooohooooo!

I'll be doing an awesome tour this summer with Leod Escapes through the Italian Alps and finishing off with two days of track riding at Sachsenring! I'm so excited

The tour begins in Munich, Germany on your choice of BMW steed and ends with two wicked track days at Sachsenring on a BMW S1000. I can't wait, can't wait, can't wait, can't wait!

For anyone that wants to come and join me on the tour (I'll be able to put participants through a California Superbike School steering exercise and lead them around the track once I figure it out....) check it out. https://www.leodescapes.com/tours/view/5/?tour=T019

Tour dates Aug 23-31. There are still some spots left. Tell em I sent ya and let's RIDE!!! WOOHOOOOO

I regret not riding in Deutschland this past year I lived there. There are lots of scenic pristine rides out there. Oh yeah they got the best booz as well!

One would hope you've got the CSS steering exercise figured out by now....

@Misti hook me up with a part time gig with CSS and I will be forever grateful

and man this motorcycle community that we are all apart of is so small. I'm looking over the link you provided and I see Scott from JWM. Him and I were just at Jennings a few weeks ago.

So i rode Italy for 6 days last year, and I'm going again in September.

I looked that this company and their tour, but at 7k+ I just couldnt justify it.

It cost me a little over 1200 bucks to fly down there, rent a motorcycle, visit 6 cities - including Switzerland, stay in hostels, ride amazing roads at my own pace (which was damn near the pace of the Italians lol), and food... oh the foood!

Regardless, youre going to have a great time! Roads are AMAZING. People are AMAZING. Motorcycle community is something completely different than what it is in the States.

Just remember, remember when youre in the city (if you are) ride aggressive. NOT splitting lanes out there is probably more dangerous than splitting lanes. Cars will give you way to pass.

Also, Im going to be doing the Ducati Ride Experience School at Mugello in September. AGHHHHH Im already way too excited!

Good luck and have fun, and take lots of pics!!!

Call the CSS office and talk to Cobie. He can explain how to go about applying for a job as a riding coach
