Hi Pete,
I've not read it befor but it pretty much sums up my style of ridding these days. They also agree with a pet rant I have which is "YOUR LANE IS YOUR LIMIT".
The only refinement I'd make is that I'm happy to trail brake in to turns even on the road and some thing I picked up from one of King Kenny's books a long time ago, believe that there should not be much of a gap if any, between turning in and gentle application of the throttle. It is in that gap if it exists, that the front can wash out. (Something like "You wont loose the front if you are on the gass").
I think they said it but I'll reiterate anyway is that one should allways ride this corner to exit in the perfect position for the next. Ie. If going left then right , exit the left on the nearside so you are already in the correct place to make the right.
I don't ride much with others but I would certainly be more encouraged to do so if a PACE group riding system was widely adopted.
