OUR INSTRUCTORS
Aaron Stevenson*, Cornerspeed Director and Chief Instructor
Aaron
is a life long motorcyclist who started riding at the age of 7. He has
held an expert racing license since 1992. He has raced Vintage (Open-Superbike
class) as well as Modern Supersport, Superstock, Superbike and Endurance.
To his credit, he has one national championship and finished second-over-all
several times in the WERA National Vintage classes. Known mostly for racing
vintage superbikes, many fellow racers on modern bikes, when practicing
or competing against Aaron on his Vintage superbike, found out first hand
that "It's not what you ride but how you ride it".
As an instructor, Aaron is able to take complex theory and break it down into easy to understand information that students can apply to their own riding. His classroom teaching style is relaxed and fun but he's very serious about the knowledge students gain and how they apply it.
Aaron has worked as an AMA Pro Racing official (Superbike) and as a licensed FIM official (Sporting Steward and Clerk of Course). For 2005 and 2006, he was appointed as the National Steward (FMNR) for the U.S. round of the F.I.M. MotoGP World Championship held at Laguna Seca Raceway.
In addition to his motorsports background, Aaron is also a life long athlete and highly accomplished in many sports. In his words: "The days of relying solely on your ability to go fast are gone. To be a top level motorcycle racer, you are required to maintain a much higher level of fitness if you want to win against the best." In an effort to be a complete coach and to mentor his motorsport athletes to a higher level, which means not only coaching motorcycle riding techniques but also coaching motorsport athletes in nutrition, strength and endurance, Aaron is a licensed USA Cycling Coach. His cycling history includes a state championship (Cat. I/II), competition in the US Nationals and a season of racing in Belgium.
PERSONAL COACHING AND PRIVATE TRAINING
If you are serious about getting the most out of your racing and training, you may want to consider hiring a coach. Aaron Stevenson is unique in that he can train athletes off the motorcycle as well as on the motorcycle.
