So I went to Roswell fun machines today and got info, The GMSP's web address is www.GADMVS.com/GMSP I called them to find out when their first opening was and they are booked through November but they may open some other dates soon she said to check on the website. I will probably call back next week and try and talk to someone else because she was a bitch
They also gave me info on another rider program this program is a 1 on 1 thing with a professional instructor, www.jkminc.com this one does not allow for you to get your license after completing the program although I may try and take it anyway because when I get a bike I don't want to kill myself.

man, that sucks that they are booked that far ahead. i should have called last summer like i was originally planning on. i went by the motosports honda dealer today and that was lots of fun. the salesguy was really cool and had a sweet new F4i and also came out and checked out my car and liked it a lot. i sat on the new F4i's they had and as usual they still feel nice :). i got the MSF course business card but haven't called yet although i bet i'll just find out the same things you did. he also gave me a card for some place called sunshine's learn to ride motorcycles and i think it's probably like that other place you were talking about. all i know is i need to hurry up and get one, i've been seeing so many bikes around me lately and it just keeps making me mad.

I know what you mean Cody. Two of my neighbors got bikes. One got a Harley and the other got a CBR 600.

Did you see how much they were selling the bikes for I was talking to the people in parts because I also got a tinted shield for my helmet, they were real cool they also wanted to know about my car kinda funny. I saw a used CBR600F3 while I was there It looked great but they didn't have a price on it, I am curious but the sales guys were talking to people looking to buy today.

If you get the F3 and get bored with the power after a while I can give you links to a place that makes a turbo kit for them. I think it was an R1 they said it beat the hell out of. There are always nitrous kits too.

haha..turbo's and nitrous on bikes are just scary. i'll be fine with the stock performance of a 600 thank you. (the salesguy was telling me about the new ones today, top speed of around 160, 10 something second 1/4 miles, 0-60 in the 3's, etc...). i think that will hold me over for a while.

Yeah, they do go crazy fast. I still want to take mine to the drag strip. They make driving a car seem really slow, but then again a car isn't as vulnerable to gravel in the road, pot holes, wet roads and stuff like that. They are really fun though.

I tried to click the link earlier and it didn't work. I saw a guy drop one doing a burnout at the dragstrip. He just was burning aout and it slung to one side and knocked him over.
