Sidecar school
« on: May 14, 2012, 09:25:16 pm »
Wondering if there is much interest out there in holding some sidecar schools to teach some newbies the art of sidecars & current riders/swingers could brush up on some things aswell?

I spoke to Hansi when I came back in 1988 and he was very keen then. He speaks very good English and as Wasp said, he puts on a good school with alot in it. However, back then I couldn't gey any interest and was even told by one of the dads that "he couldn't teach my boy anything" I bet his boy's still learning......
I will contact him again and see when it might happen and where.
We have talked about it on occasion but have never put one together up here in Qld-we should do one at the beginning of each season.
More discussion reqd.

There are plenty better than me to show the new guys but I would like to have some input, mostly about fitness and conditioning.
We could put something on before Conondale.
