This is an yearly event for Police and EMS on bikes to test their skills and help train them at the same time. Some of these courses may seem easy till you get on a several hundred pound motorcycle and try to make sharp turns in 8 or less feet. The first part of this video is the slow ride where you can not put a foot down or hit a cone and go as slow as you can. The second part of this video is the 2 man team where 2 riders go through the voirse the same time try not to hit any cones or dump the bike which both will happen. These courses only look easy as you watch the video they are really not that easy to complete.
