TdubLady 1 Posted August 12, 2015 If you're headed that way with your truck and have room for me and my little bike, I'd REALLY appreciate a lift. Happy to meet you in Alpine or wherever. Will pitch in for gas, buy you lunch...eeeny-teen you whaaaan!! I desperately want to practice my basic skills: standing while riding, rear brake use, getting used to sliding, etc,etc. I don't wanna invade your ride or crush your groove, I just need a little help. OR if you know of a safe, legal place for me to practice in the Lakeside/Alpine area PLEASE let me know!! Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

November 12 - 14 there is an event in Pahrump where Jimmy Lewis will be conducting a two day class on Thursday and Friday. Saturday will then be riding with other folks (just ask around for people who are similar riders). A lot of us are staying in motels, some are trying to work out camping. NSFW on advrider is working at making this a yearly event. If you want more info send me a pm, I'd put this link here, but I have to scoot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted August 13, 2015 If you leave now, you can probably get there by November. If next weekend is cooler, I may head out there, and can pick you up in lakeside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted August 23, 2015 When it cools down...95 @ 9 o clock is stupid...but the bike ran ok. Clutch needed adjusting more than once. I don't feel any horsepower, but power delivery is definitely crisper. Thanks for tagging along...we'll get you on a trail eventually Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
