    If you get something out of it and improve your riding, it is worth the cash.

    I've done 3 levels of California Superbike School, the first one when I first started track riding, the second 12 months later and the third about 2 years after that. I got something out of each level, but less and less the higher I went. During the 3rd level day, my instructor nearly highsided trying to keep up with me. He couldn't pass me to get in front, even when I was using 2 gears and no brakes, so he would wait for me to come around and pull out in front to demo the drill and I had to slow down to sit behind him. He still offered a bit of advice and gave me a few things to think about and work on, but the best part of the day was Al's lesson at the start of the day and his personalised tips regarding body position. Sadly, Al no longer works for CSS, so I have no idea who their 'specialist' instructor is now.

    6 months ago, my wife and I paid for Alex Cudlin to do a day with us and it was great. We both got some tips from him to work on and he is a great bloke and easy to work with; and he had no issues keeping up.
