California Superbike School Continues Education Of Racer Peter Lenz
Apr 03, 2008, From a press release issued by California Superbike School
10-year old motorcycle road racer Peter Lenz has taken another big step in his riding development. Peter spent this past Saturday and Sunday at The Streets of Willow Springs riding at the California Superbike School. That was immediately followed by two days with the CodeRACE School. By the end of the four days Peter had shown exactly why Keith Code and the California Superbike School are continuing their full support of the little guy for the 2008 season.
"My staff and I have been coaching Peter for the past 2 1/2 years and are proud of his riding accomplishments. Having Peter come to our regular schools and to our RACE program only re-enforced our original estimation of how worthwhile a competitor he is and what a great student of the art can accomplish. Peter is very dedicated, very alive and very fast," stated Keith Code.
After four days of coaching, Peter's lap times dropped into the 1:28s which is about six seconds off documented 125GP lap times. Rather impressive when you take into account Peter was riding an 85GP class Honda RSF150R (an RS125 with an CRF150R powerplant) and the 22 horsepower motor had to take on the infamous Willow Springs winds.
“I was excited and nervous when I first went out on the track with all the grown-ups, but after a couple minutes I forgot about that and just did the drills like I was supposed to. I had a great time and I learned a lot. They fixed lots of things with my riding. Dylan, Misti, Will, Stuman, and of course Keith were all great and made me feel part of their team. I can't wait to go back later this month,” commented Peter.
