2010 South Rally Education day
 

This idea spawned from Amorok's earning of his MSF instructors cert.

Anyway looking for ideas of what we could do as a day activity. Some things to think about first, we need someone to teach, and cost would probably be an issue; materials/tools/equipment, we will most likely all be on bikes so cant be brining too much stuff along; expense, no we can't afford Bostrom to do a day long class on body position; interest, want to keep it relevant for as many people as possible (an off roading class while cool probably would leave some folks out).

Ideas so far:

1) BRC/ERC MSF course
2) Riding technique/body position
3) garage tech class/good maintenance practices
4) suspension setup "how to"

Well, teaching a certified MSF course would require an MSF certified range, and that's kind of involved. Trip, if you know where one is I can talk to the people there and see about an ERC. otherwise I'll bring some stuff and do some nformal something.

Probably better to do informal.

We need to see what kind of interest people have in this and see if people want to blow a day of vacation on learning. :lol:

Yea... no offense but I'm certainly not interested in having anyone short of the AWESOME coming in and giving me riding lessons!

As far as suspension goes, if we pay for a bike to be adjusted, I'm sure that Ken Wheeler would be happy to give a class at his shop. Also, Race Tech produces "How To" videos on suspension that I will bring IF there is honest interest. Last year, I brought way too much crap and plan to not make that mistake again.:lol:

I'm not even bringing a change of clothes.

I'll bring my range cards and my stopwatch if people really want me to, we can work on some stuff but anything advanced will have to involve plotting out some distances and angles. Most likely I could just read through some things, most of what I would teach you guys would already know anyway. Is there an MSF range somewhere close by?

dont know if there is any in robbinsville, the one for knoxville is a on the other side of knoxville from the gap.

Interesting... but um.... I get 400 extra points in class for bringing the full dresser.

if you can get a knee down, you get 50k points.

Badabang, This idea is great. I know that after I had wheeler set up my suspension for me the bike feels 1000x better, but i really have no clue what he did.
