Homemade "Cones" for Extra Practice
If anyone wasn't aware, tennis balls cut in half make for great "cones" to use as practice in parking lots. If you ever feel like setting up more advanced drills for yourself, they work great. They are... Cheap Light weight Bright (easy to see) Stable on the ground Easy to make Fit in saddlebags Safe to run over on accident Won't break easily Just be sure to buy DDFM's Drill book and cones first... THEN, supplement with chopped tennis balls.

Downshifting with Rev Match while constant front brake pressure
I live in Dhaka the Capital City of Bangladesh. Everyday I ride to office from home. Everytime when I get on my bike I focus on some skills development like swerving, counter steering, throttle control and rev matching with constant front brake pressure along with vision and barin train. Here is my two question: One is, I can't understand why do I need rev match while constant front brake pressure. And two is, while I blip the throttle my front brake pressure is not remain even.

You don't have to rev-match on downshifts if you don't want to. Will rev-matching make the downshift a little smoother? Yes. Will NOT rev-matching hurt the engine/transmission? No. As long as you are downshifting at the appropriate RPMs, you won't be over-revving or under-revving the engine, and you won't be hurting the gearbox.
What Do You Want Next?
Just curious... My plan is to do all of these things, but I want to know what you want me to focus on first.

I'm a big fan of the cone drills, so a weekly challenge sounds best to me!

@Robert Moeser Sorry to hear they hassle you up North. When I first started riding I was practicing in a big church parking lot near me for two weeks before I even felt comfortable enough to hit public roads.
