Milwaukee, WI (March 30, 2022) – Royal Enfield is proud to partner with Johnny Lewis and Moto Anatomy to once again offer Slide School for 2022. Now in its third year, the school, led by the American Flat Track racer Johnny Lewis, offers a unique opportunity to learn the fundamental skills of flat track racing. From Carson City, Nevada, to Weedsport, New York, the Royal Enfield Slide School by Moto Anatomy will span the country, with several stages aligned with the 2022 Progressive American Flat Track Championship, as well as major events such as the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.
“This is our third year doing the Royal Enfield Slide School,” said Moto Anatomy’s Johnny Lewis. “It’s good that we were able to expand the schools and add new stops. Flat tracking is extremely popular right now, and I love introducing people to the slide technique. It’s always fun to see the look on their faces when it all comes together. Tobogganing is an art, and once you’ve mastered it, it’s hard to get away from that feeling!
Moto Anatomy’s Royal Enfield Slide School introduces beginner to intermediate riders to slide technique. The 3-hour course breaks down the same fundamentals used by professional AFT Championship racers, giving racers the knowledge that could take them years to figure out on their own. Since 2020, Royal Enfield Slide School by Moto Anatomy has hosted hundreds of riders, and even traveled internationally. “We’re getting closer to our 400th student this year,” Lewis added. “It’s exciting to reach such a milestone.”
This hands-on school puts riders aboard Royal Enfield FT 411 motorcycles. The Himalayan-based machines provide an ideal platform for flat-track racing with a stable chassis and towable 411cc single-cylinder engine…and of course , no front brake!
“Flat track is an easy sport to ride, but difficult to master,” says Breeann Poland, Marketing and Communications Manager – Royal Enfield Americas. “Johnny Lewis does a great job of breaking down the steps to learn how to slide the bike through a 180 degree turn, the signature of flat track racing. We are proud to partner with Johnny for another season of Slide Schools, and look forward to visiting new locations in 2022.”
