If you have never been on a track before the experience can feel daunting so here are a number of tips to help make your trackday enjoyable.
Use a van or a trailer to get your bike to the trackIn a previous article, Top Secrets to Great Teaming, I wrote about the importance of having all the essential documents you need for an RFP proposal, and how to make sure they reach the right people. In this, 5 Top Secrets to Winning the Bid, I’ll share some secrets to winning that bid.Tip # 1. Make sure you use all the real estate given to you. Use the cover to promote your firm and leave the name of your firm front and foremost in their minds. Use an outstanding color to make a strong visu This has a number of advantages. If the worst happens and the bike gets damaged you can get it home without waiting for a recovery service. You can prepare the bike the night before by removing anything that can be damaged in a spill. Removal is far better than taping something up. If cost is an issue hire a van with a friend or two. One advantage that is often overlooked is what happens after a trackday. You've been out on the track for 8 sessions, you're tired (trust me, you will be!!), your leathers are soaked with sweat, your tyres are way past their best, you have to ride home and your perception of speed is screwed up. It's a recipe for disaster. With a van or trailer you can get changed into fresh clothes load the bike up and unwind with some good sounds. If it's a hot track day you can change out of your leathers between sessions. Food Don't eat junk food and drink Coke or other fizzy drinks: the sugar levels dull your concentration. If you don't believe me have a look at the first session after lunch at your next trackday. Drink bottled water and eat fruit or pasta. The 3 Sessions to be aware of!! There are 3 sessions you have to take extra care in. I would advise you to run at 75% in these sessions for various reasons: 1. The first session of the day You are new to the track. Even if you have been around it before and it's dry, the grip levels will be different from last time and heavy rain might have washed some of the rubber deposits away. The track will be colder than before and other riders may not have ridden the track before. If you have done any work on your bike you will surely discover that you failed to tighten a caliper bolt in the first few laps. 2. The first session after lunch Tyres have cooled, concentration levels are lower. Use this session to get back into the groove and gradually build your speed up again. 3. The last session of the day Simple bit of advice here, don't go out in the last session: confidence is up and will invariably exceed ability, tiredness will start to play a part and tyres wil be nearing the end of their life.

I was in the middle of a customer service training session when my entire audience put down their pens almost at the same time, leaned back in their chairs and looked up at me with smiles and childlike innocence.

There are so many things to consider, such as the size of the home, the location it is in and whether it has a good school district. Many purchasers opt to have a real estate brokerage represent them in the sale. The responsibility of a person licensed to practice real estate is to act as a liaison between the selling and purchasing parties to the transaction.

So I learned what I knew from reading, other friends, or not at all. In other words, I had no mentor or role model. I made many mistakes along the way that were costly in both money and time; but what choice did I have? Who should I have asked? Looking back, there were some very basic bits of knowledge I could have used and yet they were not taught in any school. So, as a public service, l 2.

Pick your group wisely Fast Group: lots of fast road riders and racers, this is probably the safest group of the lot as fast riders know what they are doing. If you aren't sure whether you should go intermediate or fast, pick the fast group: you can always ask to go down a group later. Intermediate Group: Try to avoid this group like the plague, its got fast guys who don't like to finish mid pack, slow guys who don't want to go in the slow group. The broad spread of riders is a recipe for disaster. Slow Group: this is the ideal group for Novices and people who want to build their confidence. You won't be the slowest rider here, you are not expected to ride like a GP god and apart form a few intermediate riders who like to lap people and so choose this group you will be given lots of room. Once you have lapped 3/4 of the field and are confident of your ability then its time to move up. Take some lap time of riders in the other groups from the front, middle and back of the group, compare them with your lap times and if you can make it in the fast group, do it!
