MSF course is highly worthwhile

Too many AF troops were getting schmeared in motorcycle wrecks, that's how.

The story played out with alarming regularity.

Take your re-enlistment bonus, buy a 900cc crotch rocket, and get hosed off the pavement in a few days.

happened to a guy I know. Wasn't good for his career (or his looks).

Just curious, are you going to ride up I-5 on a bike ?   

I do it all the time.  My Scarabeo cruises all day at 75-80 without breaking a sweat, and the fairings really keep down the wind blast.  The previous owner told me that he had it up to 102 miles per hour on a couple of occasions.  It is rare, however, that I get much above 60, if that, on the Seattle-area freeways due to congestion.

Wow - it scares me enough in a car.

A really good source of info on riding better and staying alive is Dave Hough's book "Proficient Motorcycling".
 Absolutely packed with good info, drawings, and photo's. He is a legend in the Motorcycle industry!
