    First off Sean if you want to move this you can stick it :moon:


    AHRMA is holding a sidecar school at Grattan June 21st.

    This will be for Race Licensed riders only.
    Maximum number of students is six (6)
    The cost is $100.
    Minimum gear required is leather jacket, leather gloves, 8" boots, long pants & Snell 2000 Full face helmet in good shape.

    To register contact Roger Preston by e-mail (preferred) at [email protected] put school in the subject line.
    Phone inquiries will be accepted from 6-9 pm eastern at 724-312-2468

    Instructors for this will be Rabbie Demetrius, Dale Lavander & Roger Preston with a possible guest appearance by
    (wait for it)........................Will Harding (race referee & sometimes monkee).

    The plan is to use the flight deck during lunch on Saturday for some hands on
    work for both driver and passenger. This will cover the do's & don'ts and figure 8's (easier said than done).

    Questions & answers will be after racing Saturday evening for students and anyone interested immediately following the awards.

    Students wanting to try their hand on track can due so during the first round of practice on Sunday only in AHRMA approved full road race gear.
    The second round of practice on Sunday is for those who are going to race only.

    If you have a rig bring it out.

    We are working on trying to do another school at Barber, time will tell.

    SRA does, I think in the midwest. But the vintage stuff is the best for monkey action.
