the box in michigan is 20x60.Wrider wrote:Not sure about TX, but I just took the basic rider course this weekend here in CO. The box is 20 ft. wide by about 40 ft. long. (And just to let you know, one of the instructors showed us how to do it with his 1800 cc Goldwing showoff!lol) If you have any experience you should be fine. I had no experience, and did it on the advanced part my 3rd time. Anyway, good luck!

Thanks all I know they will push me out of my comfort zone and that is to be expted and that the worst that can happen is i blow a turn but i guess i'm still have some reserves. I think i can handle it but the added pressure is i can't ride my bike (per the army) untill i complete the course. Of course that hasn't stoped me yet 1400 miles and counting but i would like to not have to hide it LOL. I was scheduled for tommrow but i have to take my son to the doc tommrow and get a ultra sound and upper GI done on him to check some issues out. So I had to put it off at least one more week but familey comes first. The instructor I spoke with when i enroled in the course after he put me in the ERC kinda back peddled and was almost trying to scare me in a way by talking about some of the techniques used and what not. I know all of what i have learned have been self tought except for what i have read on line and in my owners man and have tried my best to apply it. All-in-all I know that if i fail it i could just take it again but i don't want to have to do it twice considering its 1 1/2 hrs drive one way to there. Not to bad of a ride though 
thanks again

Well thanks to every one about your comments. I passed it with no problems. I did have to do the swerve and 175 degree turn two times because I wasn't going the right speed don't know if I was going to fast or slow. The biggest thing I had a problem with was the one handed off-set cone weave. Thanks again all!!!

Yeah, that one's a real booger.
Glad you passed and got it done
