I went to Lincoln Tech there. Not that bad of area on the outskirts. Didn't much like the downtown areas though. The school put us in apartments over in Whitehall. Oh yah, there is also an all female college there, well there was when I was there at least.

Hey man, maybe I've seen you around? If i see ninja 250's i usually give a big dumb wave, especially if i'm on the 250. I'm south side now, originally west end. I just went for a cruze wednesday up around Sauccon valley country club, some windy roads back in there. Was nice but i was all alone. I've been meaning to try and get in on some philly riding action too when in warms up.
Sombo - yes its ghetto

I was riding a few days this week though. Thursday I was mad that it didn't get as warm as we were promised. If any of you local guys are interested, I ended up with 2 pairs of the adjustable levers from the2wheels for new gen and only need 1. Shipping back to China isn't really worth it for $40 levers. Regular length black with red adjuster. |

Take the class now, don't wait for more miles. I took it and never rode an inch on a motorcycle before hand. Teaches you good habits, and you will have your license after the class.

I took the first class and got my license last year, the class I was referring to was the 2nd one where you use your own bike. The instructor recommended having a solid season of riding before signing up.
No my SE is the red and black - I tried to buy 1 of 2 that Blackmans had last year but the guy really made it hard to give him my money, so I got it from Scotts (in nicer condition too!). So far, I've been riding around in Bethlehem: to and from work and to and from the gym. I wear a pink helmet, so I tend to stand out. |

Got ya. Alright that makes sense.
I always had better experience with Scotts as well. Never bought a bike, but buying parts and stuff was much easier, and was more likely to get the right thing. |

I was just out this past weekend and Monday. Beautiful weather, but there's still gravel in spots so be careful out there! i'm always ready to take the bike out for a spin.

Get a third wheel and you don't worry about gravel or snow, or rain, or mud, or...
