The ERC and what I learned...

Experienced Rider Course....rode down yesterday, stayed overnight, class at 8 am, posted this on the motorcycle forum I frequent.

In a curve, straightening the handle bars is important while braking and it is harder (for me) to do with a heavier motorcycle. But I CAN do it... and need to practice.

Apparently it is mandatory for me to drop my motorcycle whenever I take a class.
( this is totally unrelated to above statement.)

I must admit, I'm pretty good in the box, and with most exercises that require a good head turn and press and roll.

Instructors must like citrus. Squeeze "like an orange" 3 years ago "like a lemon" today. Speaking of food:

Eating nearly an entire medium Davanni's thin crust, extra cheese, mushrooms and pineapple on a queen-sized bed alone in a hotel with HBO should be done at least once in one's lifetime. Once.

Rain is not bad; a downpour really isn't much fun.

If you don't somehow incorporate the concept of "Carpe diem" while taking a msf course you pretty much are an idiot. Thanks to all of the encouraging words. A great experience.

Just wanted to get this all in before the end of the world...

Nothing to post.

I love these girls:)

Royal Wedding .....I love it!!

It will be live streamed on Friday morning. I won't be able to help watching it. The whole Princess Diane saga ( her tragic car crash/ Charles & Camella ) really gripped me.

I watched their wedding live, her funeral, and now William and Kate. I'm kind of excited. A happy time of royalty after so much tragedy is worth watching I think.

Anyone else hooked?

Sunshine and Jesus.

Last night toward dusk the sun came out... I've been waiting for it. That and spring. I don't remember a spring that took quite this long to arrive. I don't know much about the stories in the bible but I bet that the "waiting" theme is in many of them. Waiting seems to be a very big chunk of the human experience.

HappY Easter Everyone!!! The waiting is over....for at least a little while>
