Book Reviews of Total Control: High Performance Street Riding Techniques
Book Review: Well presented and thorough.
Summary: 5 Stars
Lee's book is excellent for anyone either just beginning to ride a bike or with years of experience who wants to improve their skills and style or just understand more about how it all works.
It is very clearly written with just enough humor to keep it light and interesting; it takes you step by step through all the areas you need to know about in a progressive and logical manner, each chapter building from the last.
Each section also contains real world exercises that you can practice and perform on an ongoing basis to improve and maintain your skills.
I recommend this book to ANYONE who has, or is thinking of getting a motorcycle.
