Nice Cole! Great tips. We just gone done riding today at Twin Hills. Would love it if you ever did a clinic for the weekend warriors - I am sure you would have a great turnout!

[@ColeKirkpatrick]

Hi Tony, I almost went out there today. Hope you had a good ride and I’ll be sure to reach out if I do some clinic this year.

@@ColeKirkpatrick cool looks like it handles like a dream

[@ColeKirkpatrick]

@@johnnybirdman I’m pretty stoked on how it feels currently. The front end traction and overall planted feel makes it easy to ride!
