Keith Code and his book...
... "A Twist of the Wrist" is an amazing piece. I bought it about a week ago and received it today. God bless the vacation time we "still" can acquire throughout the year. I'm on one right now and had time to start reading.
I'd recommend this book to anyone! Whether you are a rider or not. The technique Keith tries to explain can be applied to any kind of studying.
If you still don't have one, go and get it RIGHT NOW!

I have both books. I think Twist of the Wrist 2 is a better starting point than the first one. And there's the DVD for Twist of the Wrist 2 which is an excellent companion, adding a lot throught visual examples
If it weren't for the racing implications, the MSF should consider it as a companion book for the BRC

The books are basically about how to improve your riding. Giving detailed explanations of techniques (like cornering mechanics), bike mechanics (like how the suspension is supposed to work) and rider mechanics. Like a term "S.R.s" or Survival Reactions which are the biggest causes of rider error (causing anything from losing time in the corner all the way to wrecking).
It's a great read because it covers everything while avoiding overly technical explanations. A lot of things I've found in the book are things I do without realizing it (tensing up on the handlebar). Some things he points out I'd never considered (like waiting for a few seconds after falling before standing up... because you might still be moving). How many times the bike is well on the way to correcting itself when we screw it up by interfering with it.
