    Can anyone tell me who the Group 3 Captain/Lead/Instructor was? I was in his group but did not catch his name. Really appreciated his leadership and just wanted to drop a note on his behalf but I don't want to resort to describing his physical characteristics in my praise email if I can avoid it; distracts from the point of my message. Thanks!

    Coach Justin Valle.

    I've seen him around, but that was my first time in 15 or 16 track days as having him as a coach. He was really great. Very encouraging, kept us all nice and calm and repeatedly reinforced that we could take some of those turns faster than we thought. Constant communication on track with lots of hand signals and fist pumps. Super fun day largely in part due to more excellent coaching from STT Family.

    Which bike were you on? Maybe you can tell by my avatar there I was on the beat up old Army green Shark bike.

    I was on the white Daytona. Agree with all points. I had a different coach on Sunday and he was excellent as well. Good weekend of riding made great by two excellent coaches.


    Oh, and thank you for his name - much appreciated.

    Thanks. Can't take credit for it. Bought it from an STT A rider two years ago. As it goes with most STT folks, he was and has remained incredibly friendly. Though I think he probably gasped after I crashed it the first time and repaired it with an entire roll of black gorilla tape...
