Reminds me, we've never even opened the video that came with the Lowrider. Might have to dig that out and see what it's about. Probably the finer points of posing, loading the bike on a trailer, etc.

Saw the video, and it helped me a lot, especially on low speed riding. Didn't learn that in my MSF course.

I have the DVD, and I've watched it several times. Every time I watch it I learn something new. I've heard that "Motorman" offers a course somewhere in Florida, and that it costs something like $100 for four hours.

I got the DVD last year right after I got my Speedmaster. It's a pretty good instructional video, now if I could just get some cones and find an empty parking lot to practice some of the techniques. All and all, it was worth the 20 bucks I spent, it has some nice bikes in it and his wife is more than alright to look at.

I got it last Fall, pretty good. A good follow up is the book Total Control by Lee Parks. A lot of good tips and info.


We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
