    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

If that was MSF for real, the coaches are being bad. All MSF coaches are supposed to be wearing either the bright yellow reflective vests or clothing of the same nature. The guy that had trouble accelerating and stopping was riding like many novice riders do, and it's a good thing he's taking the course, he should be able to ride better by the end of it. They had several more exercises to go before the skills test portion, he might have it figured out by then. :D

Hmm... Good tag. Have to think about that one. But be careful using your side stand in gravel. Ask me how I know ?:D

Had to look him up. This would have made him infamous:

"Given command of the Army of the Cumberland, he fought against Confederate Gen. Braxton Bragg at Stones River, and later outmaneuvered him in the brilliant Tullahoma Campaign, driving the Confederates from Middle Tennessee. His strategic movements then caused Bragg to abandon the critical city of Chattanooga, but Rosecrans's pursuit of Bragg ended during the bloody Battle of Chickamauga, where his unfortunately worded order mistakenly opened a gap in the Union line and Rosecrans and a third of his army were swept from the field. Besieged in Chattanooga, Rosecrans was relieved of command by Grant."

I should be humble and say I would hate to have seen my video. lol
I tested on my big Shadow, which is btw, a horribly balanced machine. At those creeping speeds like in traffic I still wobble all over the place. Impossible to keep her steady.
 
I'm going to be testing on my friends kawi klx250sf, My bike is just too big and high strung at slow and low city speeds to use for a precision "test taking" kind of driving style. His bike is half the weight, a third of the power, and a six speed. So I would have to shift 3 times to break a speed limit, lol.

As for tags I'm out for a bit. My friend is back from his trip so I have no lend of his bike, and mine's in pieces waiting for parts to arrive in the mail.
Sonic Springs came in today, YAY!!

I agree, don't change it. If no one has it by tonight I'll get it on the way to work tomorrow.
 
I have searched out famous people born in Vancouver, and either we don't have enough pride in them, or nobody ever thought there place of birth important. I cannot for the life of me find a plaque anywhere in our area commemorating the birth of a PERSON. How about GreenPeace? There's a plaque for their maiden voyage somewhere around here.
