Hey Kurt...welcome back!
Chuck and I live in Indy. He rides a Gixxer (Boo...I know, I give him shit a lot), and I'm in the works for saving up for an R6, or something of the sort. I have the MSF class under my belt, so thats one thing out of the way. I'm by no means ready to tear it up on the track or street, but I have a feel for riding now. I found this place while researching R6's and I've been an addict since.
I think it's awesome that your son rides dirtbikes. I',m planning on getting my son a 50cc for his 6th birthday in July. He really wants one.
If you go to Putnam in April for CycleOPtions, Chuck and i will be there. He won't be on the track this year due to the mishap he encountered last year...he can't stomach shelling out another 4K if something does go wrong. He's looking into buying a track bike in the fall. But, my friends come up from ATL to do that trackday, so we'll be there with them. Awesome to meet ya!
