Teaches you how to learn what is better to do in a tight spot, as well as fast and flowing riding styles. Much like the Police book, I would guess. Haven't seen a copy of it for years though.
'Twist of the wrist II' is the better book. Combined with 'Motorcycle Roadcraft' you'll be sorted. If you want to do speed in relative safety, I'd recommend the 'Ron Haslam Race School' at Donington. They supply ALL the kit, i.e. one-piece leathers, helmet, boots, gloves, and bike. And you have a tutor who is an experienced racer. Could even be 'Rocket Ron' himself...
