| For what its worth from a 'non-competitive, non-racing, road and TD riding, average Joe' I have completed levels 1 and 2 and found them very good.
I view the cost of the course as part of my never ending search for biking nervana...i.e. being able to ride at speed, in control...and safely. Whether that be on the road or on track at a TD...the same rules apply, and have certainly helped me in becoming more confident in the corner and on the throttle...and therefore ultimately, safer. Money well spent in my eyes.
The point seems to be if the course is worth attending for everyone...and the answer is clearly no. That applies all through the various levels, some beginners will find it of beifit others won't. The same applies to the best in the world...some will find it of use, others won't. Thats life.
I do find it funny though that some peeps appear to think that they are genuinely quick and that they can only be 'made' faster by watching or being taught by someone quicker than themselves. You only have to look at the sporting world in general to see that that is in fact almost never the case...with managers/coaches etc. generally being people whom fully understand the underlying factors that make someone successful in their chosen sport, not their history, not their speed/strength/balls or how may medals they have won in the past.
