re: Looking for a motorcycle safety class.
Posted by UPGDude on 2/26/24 at 3:12 pm
I took the HD class in Baton Rouge years ago. 3 nights to go over rules and recommendations and then 2 days riding in a big parking lot. Nice thing was that they provided the bikes (BUELLS). I still laugh at some of the riders that forgot to put kickstands down when they stopped. When you finished t...

re: Lifted truck in public parking garage
Posted by UPGDude on 2/2/24 at 2:38 pm
