MSF, just a question
james
there.
(just wanted to compare with my having the licence in France, guess
there
are not so many basic differences)
What do u really learn there? How is it organized? (theory, practice(s))
Is it hard?
Do you need a gun to get the licence? ;) Should you live in Texas?

there's a whole thread recently about MSF called Top 5 lessons
from MSF or something, so i'm not going to rehash what you learn
in detail. you learn basics, basically. it's organized, at least
my class was, into one evening of classroom, a day of half
"range" work actually on bikes and half classroom, and a day of
range work. three days total.

for me, it was a cinch, easy easy easy. but of my class of 12, i
was one of only two who had ever ridden a motorcycle before. and
i'd ridden for quite a while. three other students dropped out
and didn't complete it. all of those who completed passed.
watching them during their examination, it looked like it was
easier for some of them than others.
>Do you need a gun to get the licence? ;) Should you live in
Texas?
most people who live in Texas are happy to live in Texas. many
people who don't live in Texas think they're lucky they don't
live in Texas. But once people discover Austin, Texas, suddenly
they think maybe they do want to live in Texas after all. Which
makes managing growth around here in Austin a problem. So the
answer is no, pretty much. You shouldn't live in Texas.

Haven't heard that one before, I have heard it referred to as San
Francisco on the Colorado.

You mean Austin is in Texas??? No way!! It is really a
dislocated Kalifornia city.
Most of the state is fairly conservative. Austin is liberal
and often refered to as Moscow on the Colorado. The result
of too many yankees moving in.
Shame because the lake country is pretty nice.

The Moscow on the Colorado comes from tx.guns. What with
UT, San Francisco also fits. I don't remeber the name of the
street which is the main drag but it is populated with some
of the most interesting people. Couldn't find them anywhere
else in the state, except maybe the Montrose (sp?) area of
Houston.
It is amazing how different Austin is from the rest of the
state considering it is the state capitol. The terrain is
sure nice though.
