Point of clarification: chaps with an ass built in are called pants.

Nice ass pirate costumes.
Personally, I think the MSF course has value even for the "expert", but what do I know?

That's what I told them. But I didn't say "Clive thinks so too," so maybe I'll try that.

[shill] The Virginia program had students ranging from newbies (in some case, who'd never even been on a bike before and couldn't work a manual transmission) to grizzled veterans riding alongside their bitches (said bitches typically belonging in the first group and in the class because said veteran wanted to "share the joy of motorcycling"). ALL learned something. Even the jaded know-it-alls (yes, that means I took the class, too). If they tried to skate by on expertise, they usually had trouble with one or more of the exercises. [/shill]
What jacket is that? I know I was looking at it when I was shopping, but the make/model is escaping me. Tour Master? Joe Rocket?

The brand is EXPEXL, which is sold (I think) directly by the manufacturer through their own dealer- motodirect.com. I would consider it a mid-level quality jacket, probably comparable to TourMaster. It lacks a few features that some of the more expensive jackets have, but is good quality leather, well constructed, and most importantly was cheap (I think I paid $80, including shipping). I also have one of their mesh jackets that is also a reasonably nice, extremely well vented summer jacket. I think it was about the same price as the leather.

You wear it much better. Or at least less gay.

I, by the way, was the only person in the class who earned a perfect score on The Box. Later that night, my wife disagreed.

Do you prefer to finish with a swirl?

Hell, who cares about a perfect score. I'm delighted to get participation credit.

werd UB. If college taught me nothing else it was all about showing your work for the partial credit. I was a real hard tryer.
