Sante Fe Vintage Motorcycle club will be having a ride-in Bike show with several nicely redone vintage street machines to check out during the 12 to 4 pm time frame.
Another addition for the Memorial day weekend festivities in Greenwood, MO is the Vintage Iron MX school. This will be on Friday for those that would be interested and able to make it.
Rick did this class last time he was here a few years ago and the feedback on the class was all positive. It will cover techniques in starts, cornering, jumping and most importantly braking. Plus the proper way to walk a track and all other aspects of the race day. Cost is $125 per person. Remember, one of the safest ways to race is be as educated about it as possible. You never know enough that you can't learn a little more. To sign up for the Vintage Iron MX schoot on Friday May 22nd call Curtis at 816 797 2753
So make sure you make plenty of time to be in Greenwood, MO for Memorial Day weekend. We have worked a long time to get to MOVMX race #100. Show up and help make it a big one. MOVMX.com for info and directions.
Thanks, Curtis
