If everyone did the try on @ local shops and then buys off the internet, there would not be any local shops to try on.
With that said can this thread go back to riding?

Guilty of this myself and I do agree that we should support our local shops. I have purchased from Performance when it was a little less expensive on line. I wonder if Performance would match pricing or come close if asked? I know I found a few things on line and forwarded a request to 303 Cycle and he got the product at the same price for me. True I have to drag my lazy ass to the store, but the boys are so nice and traffic on 285 is a rare treat for me
I've been getting great mentoring from doing the minimoto races, gratis for showing up and being really slow. So far I have learned these things:
1. Don't trail brake as an alternative to having a better line
2. Look up the "road" and have a plan (thanks bob)
3. Mechanical things (thanks a ton chris and kevin)
4. Don't be lazy hanging off (thanks hammer)
5. What cornholing means (thanks brad)
Got water wetter, ordered SP-1 gloves.

That minimoto looks fun!!! How much can I weight and still be satisfied with last place?
Thank you for a great idea!!
I’m looking for street and IMI mentoring. I start riding in 2008 and I rode almost 15k miles, 90% of it is canyon riding. I never attend a track day or been to IMI. I ride with full gear all the time and read several riding books. Thanks!!

If your looking for basics for IMI, I could probably help you out among several other people.
Just starting with a few simple things like getting on and off the track safely, moving onto track etiquette, some basic "do's and donts", then onto lines, a little on body positioning and such.
Let me know if you're going Slo. I could use maybe one session of mentoring if you can spare it.

I think Brad would like to go Friday. Works for me too.
