Twist of the wrist books

Have you got them?

How good are they, and is it best to get both?

Thanks
Steve.

I read TOTW i&ii,

but prefer this book:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...560150-5838810
It is up to date - although still American, it gives a balance of both sport riding for the road as well as rack riding techniques. The explanations made more practical sense to me than TOTW - but each to their own.

Steve,

I've got TOTW 1 and 2, it's fairly hard going as it's Americanised, but the principles are very well thought out, I can bring them along to the meet next week if you want.

Myself, Lily and Shaun are off to Level 2 next month, so if you want anything - Books/DVD's etc let me know as Andy did say he could offer some discount on those items

It's a very edited version, which covers only a few lessons etc from Level 1, not the full DVD's
