The year 2007 saw Craig Jones begin to take his knowledge to the forum of teaching. What started off small is now growing both with the quantity of candidates and with the ingredients of a packed day’s training.
The Craig Jones Bikes Skills Academy aims to demonstrate and teach a wide knowledge of motorcycling right across the spectrum for riders of all levels. There is no other academy of teaching like it.
Starting with Mr Jones heading the project, followed by a high profile racing name, a police force, a mainstream professional track day company and the very best sponsors set the academy’s credentials.
To teach riders in this way is a concept which is portable and can be moulded to suit different environments worldwide.

What are the ingredients of the layout of the day ? ....

Timed aggressive low speed handling...: An example of an urban situation through traffic within a city. This is how to push a bike hard, controlled and with absolute confidence.
Front wheel stoppie techniques...: This is the extremes of braking. To be able to take the front braking to the limit resulting in literally standing the bike on the front wheel.
Circuit riding techniques...: Understanding how to enter, apex and exit a corner on a race circuit.; Understanding body positioning when cornering on circuit.; Understanding bike suspension set up for the circuit.; Riding the circuit with tips from a recognised professional racer.
The wheelie machine...: Experience actually wheeling a bike completely safely within the controlled environment and safety of a specially constructed machine that allows you to simulate everything that it takes to wheelie.

Police instruction...: The cone pattern manuevring is often undertaken by the police because these are the very techniques that are part of police motorcycle training.
The ability to be able to manuevre and balance a bike in the smallest of areas resulting in ultimate control and confidence.; A 2 :1 ratio of police officer to rider for a road riding evaluation.; Understanding how police motorcycle officers are trained to ride the streets.; Understanding road safety.
