    My brain is turning into mush. I officially started the MSF Coaches class today. Been studying like crazy, and still don’t feel like I’m prepared for it. But I passed the knowledge test this morning, so I’m off to a good start I think!

    I booked my moto courses and didnt see they wanted the prep work. It's odd being 39 and being berated by a teacher haha.

    Lane positioning was a big thing I didn't read up on and nearly failed my exam.

    It varies in most areas, but this is what I mean.

    Most advise stay out of middle lane, but A & C are what I goofed up, I was always like C on my test. Oops.

    Same here. Have some mods to do but my garage is unheated and too cold to be doing anything there. So just waiting for the milder weather to return. Pictures are from the last ride a few months ago.

    My buddy loves his 690, they are an amazing bike, lots of power for how little they weigh.

    It's hard to find huskys here, let alone under 10,000$

    Yes, I was lucky @ 9500 plus tax, so yes over 10. Found it at a dealer with only 400 on it. It seems people either love em or hate em.

    Nicely kitted out. Which rear rack is that? Perun moto? I've been eyeing one for my 701SM for a bit.

    Massive dog damn thumpers lol.

    I find 650+ singles make my hands "buzz" I've only rode the KLR and KTM 690 but it gets to me.

    My 250 will do it if I hold the grips too tight for too long.

    I'd still love to try the SM 690/701 haha lots of body movement through corners I imagine.

    Ive looked at their classes for a long while now. Just cant decide if I want to do that or drop down and do something like M School.

    Dirtfish is nice, but I know Id wanna go all in on a multi-day after a half day taste test at Dirtfish.
