Haha I'm sure he does reuse call signs, they go through a loooot of students man.

I think the only original one we got in our group was prolly "Homer" because we have this one guy who explained his job as "basically what Homer Simpson does", watching over the controls of some nuclear test lab.

I'm thinking of a zx6r...or a 250r just to ride around for a season or two. See how I feel after finishing PRS.

How much is insurance for your bike, RabidRat?

Hey you noobies,

Make sure you come out to the Stock and Newbie meet on April 27! If you don't have your bike and/or Class 6, at least show up in your car! Details are in the Unofficial Meets forum.

Anyone else ready to move to the committed list? I found out a friend of mine is registered for a class in early May. I'm planning to take the learner's test on Friday and then sign up soon if there's a group rate.

Group sign-up is still available, however the discount is now only $50 vs the original $75 we had going for us.

nickgailloux is already on the committed list so we just need a 2nd and 3rd to sign on and we'll be able to get Round 2 done.

Btw to anyone wanting to know what's going on with the PRS Sign-Up, just check the 1st post. I keep that updated so you don't have to read through 7 pages of posts to stay up to date lol.

res4ever, did you and your friend register yet? I submitted your names to PRS with Round 1 but if you haven't by now (it's been a week since the cut-off), they may have taken you guys off the list. In that case, you would be with Round 2.
