Surprisingly, to me anyway, reversing in a straight line was the one I had the most difficulty with and will need to work on. The instructor was good, and taught us the "two" bites reverse. Full lock (the wrong way) at the right moment to get the van going the way you want, till the inside wheel stops rotating and becomes a pivot, then stop, full lock the other way then reverse into the pitch. left and right. Very good, simple technique, well taught.

The beemer was great, auto hold off, and it crept at a perfect pace even with a van on the hook.
