keith code uses some special machines to teach at his school.

this one looks like a great learning tool to get a feel for xtreme lean angles w/o worrying of low siding...

we have got whole clubs here that do that.
Yeah, all the clubs around here are either old guys on harleys, or young black guys on CBRs, and gixxers, wearing jeans and wife beaters.

I'm in a riding club myself. Mixed age group (17 being the youngest, mid 60's or so being the oldest. I think we've got 1 Harley guy on a V-Rod. Most ride sportbikes/sport tourers or standards. A few WERA/AMA guys as well. Some ex-racers (one guy who raced against Miguel Duhamel in one of Duhamel's first AMA seasons back in 1987 or so, apparently Duhamel schooled him like crazy. I just found out about this last night).

We're not into stunting and they really push safety (both riding and gear). They do long rides and track days and such. It's a good group! Found out about them through my MSF BRC instructor.
