Default Ride like a pro !

On Easter day I took this class. This 4 hour class was awesome, if your having some difficulties at slow speed/parking lot maneuvers. Take this class. Here's a short video of me following Jerry in the "Iron Cross.

Nice. What's he charge for a class?

The classes around these parts are pricey. I tend to just go out and practice alone.

Here's​ my first slow ride on my new 2016 Limited.


It was way more nerve racking on the new bike than it was on the old 09 Ultra Classic.

That was awesome. I don't think you don't need the class. Nice work

That ain't bad. The lock and lean classes are way more.

Default Well worth it.

I took the class after I got my RGU in September. It's my first touring bike and the class made a huge difference in how I handle the bike and how much I enjoy it. I frequently practice the skills so I don't forget them.
