As some of you know, Janet took the MSF course while I was gorging myself on BBQ and u-joints, passed, enjoyed it, and passed the DMV test.  So, for around the price of a nice Valkyrie Tourer, we got her a 2002 VT750CDD Shadow ACE Deluxe with just over 2,900 miles to practice on and a 2000 VT1100T ACE Tourer with just over 9,300 miles to (hopefully) grow into. Wish her luck!  And to quote Tropic traveler, "HEY...She has two bikes!"

Hey Janet, Just wanted to tell you I think it is awesome 'took' the class, much less 'Passed' it. You are the WO-man!!!  I know I SHOULD take it, just haven't gotten the nerve up yet. I hope we get to ride with you some day soon. Really missed you at the Glue Q, but I know you were busy that weekend  Congratulations on everything !!! Hugs, BJ Hay

Is she going to be ready to ride to InZane?? She's doing very well so far, but no. She figures she might be ready to ride to Tucumcari, though. Next year!
