taking time off from the bike for small children, I decided to take the ERC about 10 years ago, and I was impressed.
We spent equal time in the classroom and on riding skills on the (very hot) asphalt parking lot. The instructors were great and the riders were knowledgeable which lead to some very in-depth discussions of techniques and riding philosophy.

I have gone on to take a couple of track-specific riding schools, but for my money, MSF is hard to beat for fine-tuning street riding skills.
