Postby RedMenace » Sun Jan 08, 2006 7:07 pm

Tawm-I am setting my 06 sidecar instruction schedule, picking dates for the classes. I would kinda like to do the Black Dog, so I don't want the class to conflict. How firm are your dates? Any progress with the county or the tribe?
If you and Dan really want to do a class, let me know what weekend May-Sept will work for you and I will see if I can set up a class date that will work for you.

Also, anyone with a cheap reliable KLR for sale, let me know! I need to get a couple set up with sidecars to teach class with.

And the Tiger is still for sale, complete with sidecar. Extend your riding season!

THis isn't a great photo but I have the deck on the black KLR and hope to build the seat and body this afternoon. Joel welded the mounts and put the chassis on my other KLR last week so there is a good chance I will have both of them ready to go for the class May 6~7.
There are still four openings for that class-Tawm? Danno? :lol:

Yo Vern,
I'm on the hook for the Shelton Enduro this weekend, so no can do this weekend, but definately one of the others. Will have to inspect my dance ticket calendar to see what's up, and get back to you.

PS: it possible to just do a one-day class?

Tawm, it is pretty much a two day class, but well worth the time. Just finished putting the first KLR together-it is sweet!

Have the dualsport knobs on the Bandits, too-makes 'em look tough!
