red durr

[jameslove]

I'm moving up to red deer an takin my apprentice motorbike mech. Don't know a single person there besides my bosskies... just wonderin if anyone is into the stunt scene up there?

I'm just startin out but it's prolly alot safer an more fun to ride with someone else around who's into the same style of riding.

Just send me a pm.

Cheers

-James

When I went through the Journeyman program (not fer fixin bikes), you could only challenge one year of your apprenticship. You may want to check that out.
