    tell ya what Robert Ill put money where mouth is--You front up at The KB track day in NOVEMBER and I will pay your fee to be there--IN TOTAL UP FRONT.
    ANY kbers wanting suspension setup work done on the day can pay you at the $40.00 I suggested. If it washes up under your fee Ill cop the balance. If its MORE then you owe me a beer --I drink the dark stuff from Ireland so as ya know what to buy me
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    I will be in Italy on that very day but some alternatives may be able to be worked out. I still think some set up schools away from a track would provide much much more initial value and understanding. More people will benefit much more quickly and to a degree would be able to pass this knowledge on to a wider spectrum of riders.

    I used to drink Guinness ( in the UK ) but coffee is now more relevant!

    In order to gain practical knowledge, we need the theoretical knowledge to lay the foundations. This thread has been extremely helpful, and entertaining. But I for one would far prefer to have a classroom type situation. I believe Ryan was trying to organise something?

    These comments make perfect sense. One workshop in Auckland. Then one in Wellington on say a Saturday, fly to Chch Sunday and conduct one there. ( I merely need to recover costs and doing it this way puts me on a main flight route ) Maximum of 20 per workshop. Does that make sense ?

    Frosty, this kind of answers your pm. Ryan is trying to organise one in Auckland, a matter of nailing the date.

    Speak to Ryan first, he has something already rather more on the go and to that end I dont want to ''cut his lunch'' as such
