Defensive Riding Class
It seems like I'm getting busy with Eleganeers member this last few weeks. Even though it is just for a sip of late night coffee after some bowling game or simply hang out at our regular late night stall. And as for today, we had a unique agenda, out of ordinary, a "Defensive Riding" class. We've been riding Elegan for a year and a half now but this is our only opportunity to properly learn how to ride safely alone, with pillion or during convoy.
The class were held at one of the lecture hall in HUKM at Bandar Tun Razak lasted about 3 hours. It's really educative even for us (old people). Started with a set of questionare about which side are you in, the safe or the dangerous rider on road. Some how most of us fall in the middle, which is very realistic. Followed with some freak accident video clip like this:
And other tips including a proper riding gear and how to keep alert or paranoid with "if" questions on each vehicle or object while riding on road.
Of course I had another purpose why did I attend this class. To study further on how my SB 600 speed lite behave in a large room. I tried bounce, direct and other stuff. Like the group photo above, I use aperture priority set to F/4.5 plus the build in flash.
I did not satisfy with all photo taken using the bouncing flash to the ceiling technique. So maybe next time I really need to focus on using bounce on card technique instead of ceiling.
