Has anybody checked this out? Worth the trip or meh?

I kind of disagree. I guess it just depends on what classes are available locally. I hadn't ridden a bike in about 20 years and then it was just goofing off on a friend's bike for a few minutes. The class helped to get my confidence level up before I bought my own bike. It was less scary when I was worrying about dropping somebody else's bike that had crash guards installed. No complaint about my instructors and the bikes were literally brand new. I may have a different opinion if I had taken the $50 class at the community college. I do think that a low speed track day would do me a world of good now that I have a few miles under my belt.

I bought a set of the $20 frog togs from Meijer. They worked well at my son's soccer games but I haven't tried them on the bike yet. I don't know if the top will fit over my armored jacket.

Crap!! Were you on the SV or the new bike?

Welcome to the shit show!

I was digging it in a rat rod kind of way. The picture was taken at QSL Polaris last night.

In the mean time you get this!

Anybody going to make it to Polaris this evening? I'll be on a graphite and blue Fz07. Black and Grey Joe Rocket jacket. Stop by and say hi.

I feel for you man. I just went through the same thing in January. Keep your chin up. Shit will work out.

You can't Film Flam the Zim Zam! That dude must have a shit magnet in his pocket. It certainly seems to follow him.

Nice!

Hi JC. What's the estimated mileage for the trip?

Is today National Asshole Day? Fuck......

Azn - I hear you man. I almost went home and got my bike at lunch.

Did anybody make it? I didn't make it there. By the time I got home from my son's soccer game and got some food in him it was too late.

Anybody going to QSL Polaris tonight?

I picked up a pair of 8 inch composite toe Bates today. I was sad to see they are also Chinmart boots. We will see how well they hold up. The sad part is that they were on sale so they were the same price as the Rothcos.

No flipping way

Welcome to the shit show!

Lo siento, señor. No quise decir a la mierda en el zapato. Holy Tapdancing Christ. Didn't mean to derail a welcome thread. I need some sleep.

Hola. Estos hijos de puta pierna follar no son buenas.

I'm struggling a litte bit. I want something that will give me decent protection. At the same time I want to be able to wear them to work on casual Friday and not want to chew my leg off at the knee at the end of the day because my feet are on fire. I went to Iron Pony today and tried on a couple of different boots but I didn't fall in love with anything.

If the weather is decent I will stop by to check out all of the bikes that I can't afford. ????

I picked up a pair of Rothco 8 inch tactical boots about a month ago. They are the ones with the composite toe and shank. I've only worn them a few times. Yesterday I was zipping up before a ride. The zipper ripped apart. They are snug but I wasn't putting on a ton of pressure. I contacted the company and they told me to take them back to the store. I hope that I can find the frigging receipt. TL;DR Stay away. They are junk. Lesson learned.

In for the QSL hate. Lol
