jporter12 Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 I spent much of my time watching everybody else. Some people were very entertaining.That was the fun part!I wore my textile jacket, work boots, gloves and helmet that I usually wear when I ride. I didn't have my riding pants at the time, and I don't think I would have worn them even if I did, unless it was rainy or cold! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snodgrass23 Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 It was a bit cold so I wore my leather jacket and chaps. Everyone else had leather jackets. No one looked at me odd, but then again I was the only one that showed up to class on a bikeSame here for the first day riding. I rode the bike down, so I was fully geared up (same thing I'm wearing in my avatar actually). Second day I drove the car down as I was a little sore from being on the bike the whole day before (rode with my brothers after class until 10pm), so I just wore my textile jacket and jeans. I even took off the jacket halfway through since I had a long sleeved shirt on and it was getting hot sitting around watching other people. Even when we did go, most of them went so slow (usually under 10mph) I was still getting hot following them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara_Rides Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 I just finished the course this past weekend....it was great....the bikes there were fine...and for me it was nice to get a feel for another kind of bike. If she's ridden before it wont matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drew95gt Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 GL with the class, I had fun with mine. I ended up using a Night Hawk 250..fun little bike to zip through the course on. The stupid figure 8's in the box was really the only thing that was tricky to me, just because u r going so slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had planned on surprising me before we got married, but then realized that she was going to change her name pretty much as soon as we got back from our honeymoon, so she waited to get the "M" endorsement until she was already getting a new license.

Bad324 Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 so my friend raised a good question. We have the classroom portion for tonight, do we need to bring anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonik Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 so my friend raised a good question. We have the classroom portion for tonight, do we need to bring anything?Your MC temps or your MC endorsement. Can't hurt to toss the gear you want to wear into the car in case after they describe the must have items you are worried that something does not meet the rules you can show it to them ahead of time.Be on time, if you are not they will give away your spot.
