The results of not having a qualification system could be far worse than just burned up brakes and exposes the school to scads of liability not to mention endangering the student.

We will get some good riding in the Blue Ridge Mountains, I am very familiar with the area and we will have plenty of time to ride ( weather permitting) 😁

Afternoon, tractor trainers, and trainees.
Just got an 1 1/8" of rain in 45 minutes. This pattern doesn't look to end for a couple weeks.
And this techno retard gets to try to set up a new iPhone.

Mick, I’m so excited to get this puppy, I will undoubtedly plan a trip to the breeder and maybe trainer can work on me too 😁

The "Payette Forward" channel on youtube has step by step videos on everything iPphone I've heard of. What to turn on, what off, how to save battery life, etc. Easier to understand than iPhone's directions.
