The spring fills with rides to fast as it is (I remember strugling to find dates for even a DAMN reunion in the past, why try to fit in one more thing...). Just my $.02; besides who says the riding season is over all ready, my callendar has stuff clear through December, this time of year is actually my favorite time of the year to RIDE!!!!

If someone has the time, go for it! In fact you could schedule one this fall and one next spring. I don't have the time to try to get one done this fall.

Count me in, as long as it's not during Daytona Bike Week or school vacation. I'll edit this post once I get the dates for school break.

I did this in 08, brand new KLR and no dirt experience. Had a good time, but wish I had a least a little off road experience before taking the class. I think I would have learned a bit more. I would be interested in doing this again.

If that was anything like the class I took that must have been rough. I did the class on a DR650 with stock gearing. I felt that was pretty rough. I remember at one point he kept yelling at me, "Down shift, down shift!". But Mr Lafferty I havent made it out of first gear....

But seriously anyone with some basic offriding experience could benefit.

How many are in a "standard" riding class?
If held in NJ is it nothing but sand and whoops or does he have logs, rocks, mud???
Just asking....
Does he travel or always at his place?
The Watts school is 2 days I think and a bunch more coin.
Has anyone done both and can comment?
Those that have been to my place know what I have and Granville has premium stuff also.
Not trying to throw this thread off balance, just asking the questions bouncing around in my head.

I'm waiting to hear what his max class size is.

He does travel occasionally

his riding does include both - remember he is in southern Jersey so it is more Hammer Run type of riding.

I am definitely in for this! :thumbup:

I agree with Jay that this Fall would be good, the riding year is just getting to my favorite part too. But, judging from the poll, he and I are the only ones so whenever is good as long as its on an open weekend. Can we schedule this for early Spring?
F*** work.
