Hey Guys/Gals,
For those that are new to riding and need a place to practice try your local cemetary ( I know kinda morbid ) the roads are paved,well taken care of. little if no traffic and curves are tight so you can work on slow speed control. Especially for young riders who think they are immortal you can look around and see what can happen if you mix bikes and stupidity or arrogance ( cars always win ).
Just an idea.
Ride smart and stay safe.:jamming:

That is a good idea. I have never heard of that. Might have to take Susan there.
And for some of you with burbs pipes, you can find out if they can really wake the dead :laugh:

We tried an empty lot. Too many cars were using it as a shortcut and were coming from all directions. Seemd more dangerous than the NJ Turnpike. But a stadium isn't a bad idea either.

Thats how it is where I live, cars everywhere. The closest stadium is 50-60 miles away. Its hard when you live in the boonies.

I learned to drive a car in a cemetary. You have evrything there... Stop signs, intersections, yeild signs, It's the best place to learn. When my daughter turns sixteen ( God help us all) That's were I'm taken her...
