    I need to correct this. Ohio's is $50 for the BRS (basic Rider Course) not affiliated with MSF anymore. MSF did raise the price for a student to $100 this year, but Ohio is not recognizing MSF anymore.  Motorcycle Ohio is working hard to get an advanced course together now. But the new BRS is a whole new ball game and would recommend it to everyone to take it. The last class I taught a few weeks ago had 3 "no shows". So that's 3 open seats. And they are only getting more empty this time of year, and the weather has been phenomenal! 

    I was using the terms interchangeably, wasn't aware the MSF had diverged from Ohio's rider training. I wouldn't see a reason for most people to leave the state to seek out MSF specifically... Especially if not recognized in Ohio.

    When a majority of everyone including Democrats and African-Americans say leave the statues where they are. It's history and it's ours. Then even the radical left should listen up. What next, include even those groups of people as "enemies of the Socialist state" and label them "nazi-racist-KKK"? Oh wait, they already do that...

    Btw, the first four arrests for that pulling down of the statue, all were members of the Communist Party or the Communist Worker's group. Get the picture yet? Not confirmed yet, but that's hard to do when the media won't play square.

    It's getting close to that "all is not as it appears" thing. Sort of pay no attention to the man behind the curtain stuff. Anyone else starting to feel like a puppet of powers out of our control?

    They arrested 4 of these people?

    Only one thing this thread is missing...... @magley64 .....DONE! :popcorn: 

    You rang?

    Fuck Nazis, white supremacists, and Klansmen. 

    If the Confederacy was fighting for "States rights" why are these out-of-state Nazi fuckwits complaining about this statue being removed by the state?

    We already have civil war museums, donate these statues to those institutions to be preserved and displayed in proper historical context. This problem isn't that hard.

    The whole motorcycle classification thing still bogles my mind. I have seen some 4 wheel conversions of the Slingshot already and I know there has been an LS-Swap already done. Still, I'd rather have something that I can drive in the rain if need be with a roof.

    IMO
    Steering wheel = Car
    Handlebars = Motorcycle

    Counter-steering & gyroscopic balance = motorcycle

    Otherwise = Car

    As stated, they have 3 wheels so they can duck NHTSA regs... That's it and that's all.

  23. Suggestion: Require Speeds for rides?

    in Daily Ride

    Posted

    I learned a lot from group rides. Watching how others tacked a corner helped me to hone my skills. I also felt more comfortable pushing my limits a bit during group rides because I felt confident that if I were to mess it up, there would at least be someone else present to call for help and keep me from laying in traffic.

     

    I never felt pressured to go faster than I was comfortable, though. Most anyone I rode with was cool with waiting for anyone to catch up.
