Day 194

Steve, the moto instructor said it and immediately I was committing it to memory.

"Technique trumps technology."

He was speaking of bike handling skills.

I think you can guess where I was juxtaposing its wisdom.

Riding.

Racing.

Training.

Testing.

We did all but the racing part today in the hot summer sun.

It was a full day's work.

I learned some new tricks and had my bad habits shown to me.

We got to practice. We tested. The training was good.

Your form and your focus are critical if you desire improvement.

You can buy the worlds lightest bike (that the marketing staff calls the fastest) and expect to be a better athlete.

You would be wrong.

And you know why.
