Hello,

I'm looking for someone who can make sometime to help newbies with turning and doing figure 8 in parking lot in the weekend.
Either that or just newbies who want to practice figure 8 together...

Where's that Andrew guy when you need him. :laughing

Seriously though, it's good to see riders out there practicing the baisics.

No, no, no. Remember - Andrew says MSF does the parking lot and he takes over when you LEAVE the parking lot.

Where is that post from him offering free lessons on his bike anyway?

OP is a chick? A hot chick? Man, don't I feel stupid.

Due to the, ahem, sensitive nature of some avatars, I have them turned off for when the kids peek over my shoulder when I'm BARFing.

I guess this is what my dad meant when he told me I was too clever for my own good.

Practice those 8s, and remember, the speed limit for sex is 68 MPH, 'cause at 69, you'd be eating it.

Are you trying to pass the DMV test? If so, I'm looking for a DMV that's got those road test patterns drawn and want to try it. Do you know where?

The Claremont ave (Oakland) office has it painted. Don't go on Sunday, there's a farmer's market.

may work,
except I'm not a dude...
does my avatar looks like it belongs to a guy who rides to you?

Depends exactly how you put it ... read the above carefully.

Sorry, no--construction cranes do not qualify as a girly thing to me, so I wouldn't have guessed only by the avatar! :laughing

On the Fourth seeing of your avatar, I guess I finally saw that the moon is suspended by the crane so.. then I figured it out. Kinda

17' and 19' diameter circle. Use 2 liter coke bottles for outside and ride in between. Search for my thread about passing the DMV test.

Also, set up coke bottles in a staggered way so you have to weave between them. Can't remember the exacts but you can search for my DMV test thread.

PS: Sleepyhead has a hot friend, too. :thumbup

already got my M1, thank you...pretty comfortable on the 250 bike they provided for the class, but very nervous on my own bike (as it is MINE)...plus my bike is a bit big for me...even worse when I tipped my boy over several times already.

Well..."Sorry, no--construction cranes do not qualify as a girly thing to me" - you may excuse me for being a bit manly...I'm a civil engineering student- for me it's beautiful...
Massive construction turns me on...the more the merrier...

Well, It's not from '100 yrs of solutide' but from 'Of love and other demons'...Good that you know. Isn't his language beautiful?

Anyway...i hate back and forth like this and never get anything done. Maybe I dont need an instructor, just couple newbies who want to practice with me to get better is fine...

I tried Eastridge parking lot and got kicked out every single time...I need a good empty place somewhere SJ, 10 miles around SJ downtown...

Prefer weekend...

I'm up for it.

Two questions:
Do you have a specific place in mind?
Have you taken the MSF course?

let's just do it...
you and me, under 69 mph...i dont want to eat it yet...:twofinger
no, i'm still looking for a place...that's probably the hardest park because I dont want to go too far for one either...and i hate it that I tried too hard to make time for it and got kicked out every single time...
:twofinger...
