Peter, you had our respect and admiration all along.
Legendary responder to enquiries.
FarRider.
IBA rider.
All-round nice guy.

But a goodly number of posts does enhance the halo.

Rather than start a new topic, this seemed like a harmless thread to remind y'all of the opportunity to hone your skills with a refresher course.

Cost $199 for a 5 hour course- 1 hour in the classroom and the rest lapping the circuit for braking and cornering training.

Sheeze . . I have so many pointless posts to go to even get to the 1000 club let alone the 5000 club . . I wish I didn't have a life, then I'd have the time to post lotsa shit and become a legend . . . Bugga, I've got a ride to do . .

Sounds like a great idea to hone our riding skills, where do you do the training and who do you contact

I've done them every year when the Gold Coast Council was subsidising them ($45 for a full day!) and had skipped them when I saw the full price. But the weekly "Motorcycle Writer" guy had an advert for that one so I jumped in.

You can go here:

and keep an eye out for specials.

Don't waste your money on a "track day" (Level 3) because our STs are definitely not suited to what they're trying to teach there.

As for "pointless posts", I thought this might be helpful to some, so apologise to those who regard it as pointless.
I 'll ignore the implication that I would be better off going riding since I believe I do a reasonable mileage each year.

I'd love to do a refresher course however HART don't do anything outside Brisbane so it'll never happen. Obviously riders in the city need training more than those in regional areas.

Once again I'm making an otiose post to bring my total posts to 4,000.

Who'd of thought I could have so much to say.

Well done...

Not another otiose post! So that's how you rack up these big tallies!

It took much lucubration to find that word, and I didn't want it to go to waste.

Pete, I would never accuse you of being pointlessly wordy… or logorrhoeic... or ambagious... or periphrastic... or prolix...
but Kate might.

Did somebody mention Scrabble? Cheers, John & Kate.

p.s... well done on your 4000+ posts.

Old Steve · « **Reply #42 on:** February 17, 2017, 06:39:31 AM »

The phrase "verbose SOB" rattles around the back of my mind, but I won't use it.

Congrats on the 4000 posts Pete.

Minds are like parachutes, only work when they're open.

Irredeemably tautologous!
