Yup thats the mature man i was talking about right there.

 

 

you know you've done something wrong when stock05 takes a squids side lol...shitty story, i hope you get some sort of refund. you could have a nice cage, hb, and some sprockets for that . and ask one of these skilled SL guys to help ya lol

 

it's shocking that enough people are willing to pay that much money for the business to run. I think people are looking for the "easy" way to figure this stuff out.

 

the magic pill sells, real solutions dont.

 

learning wheelies really only cost time

 

exactly

 

It's not all squids wanting an "easy" way to be the next local combo handbrake circle king.

The wheelie school reaches out to an entirely new demographic of people. When I helped out at a class out here in SoCal, there were 3 or so guys in the class that were over 40, one was 60+ I believe.

They just wanted to try something different

 

Nah, i think most of the pros are more than happy to lend their knowledge and experience for free. Show up willing to learn and shut the pie hole..let their work talk. I've never been charged for a lesson, and i certainly wouldn't oblige if someone asked. Maybe a case of beer or something, but 525 bucks? thats nonsense!

Pics! I wanna see your perfect whoolies

 

where was this thing held? For $500/ person I'll cage and 12 bar your bike...u bring the gearset I'll install. (if you buy a handbrake from me I'll even put that on)

the following weekend everyone that had their bikes done can come up and learn how to wheelie at my shop (total 5 riders)... if you toss your bike and kill yourself bring a friend to haul your carcass to the hospital...no cops, no ambulances, no life flight... it's private property and everyone is out of this place in less than a year so no worries. You bring proof of health insurance and bike insurance.

That nets me $2k for the week after materials and I even get a day off if I get the bikes knocked out faster. Sounds good to me. I won't be late .

This does not apply if your bike is already stunted out. You can't come

 

+1 I'll chip in on that ****! :YEAH

 

**** 500 bucks and people to ride with ...im down and i'll do a cage ,subcage and a round bari always want more stunters to ride with:YEAH

i'll be the east coast part to silly necks idea

 

This is the first time this class was at Tracy, we definitely were not 45min late.. As a matter of fact we have the cell phone call in the phone log that was made to our airport contact after we pulled up on Nate's phone log at 7:42 so our arrival time at 7:37 is pretty accurate.. Couldn't get in there much earlier for set up because of how the airport sched works.. Regardless the EMT (medical personell) are sched to arrive at 9am, no student riding is allowed until they are present.. Not sure if that is the way the emt works as for there arrival time or if the school decided that time.. After the emt arrived the verbal class was finished up and the hands on student riding began. So we wern't really behind schedule.. Only 1 bike was down not 2, which after the class ended up being the fuel pump that we finally figured out and got parts swapped amung others to get 1 bike up tested and in perfect running condition for the next days class.. The second bike earlier in the day just leaked out some coolant easily because the overflow was overfilled and after it leaked out the over flow level was at the full mark. Only 2 other students other than yourself left NOT 5, for the same impatient reasons as you, and no your right you did not influence the other students which were on my side which were the top 2 in my class as well, wierd...

As for Tony D taking your money once again you are ignorant and wrong.. Tony is an instructor like us, and traveling all around the east coast and inland which takes a lot of expense and time, on top of that sets up and works with all the contacts at the tracks, admin, everything... One thing he DOES NOT do is pocket all the money that students pay after all expenses. The actual owner of the company that has the call and intake of any company income and what is put back in to continue to grow is not a stunter or instructor, he's just the rich guy that makes this school continue to grow cuz it really is not making much of any money. So Tony is not ballin on you or your parents cash and saying **** you. So there's a few more facts for you to clear the ignorance of your garbage post.

As for this school and stuntriding in general, it takes a lot of patience, mental focus, confidence, and discipline which is half if not more of the game.. There is always going to be that 10% of personalities when it comes to these classes, that when something goes wrong they loose there patience, are only worried about how many runs there getting, having to wait, what they paid and out comes the politically correct business garbage rather than the quality of the riding at hand... At level 3 hight wheelies (max level 5 hight) which you were doin by your second run in the matter of an hour, or 10 min of seat time, or approx 40 wheelies, which took myself months and prob 100 or more hours of seat time, money, bike maint, and beating on my own machine back in 03...You can actually get just as much learned and accomplished with less runs and more down time rather than flying through the day, because down time/breaks and focus is just as important if not more that seat time that I have came to learn after 5 years in this sport..

For anyone to think the level 1 class at $525 isn't worth the money, being that you have nearly zero experience with wheelies, have lost your freakin mind.. Though this class really isn't for the poor folk cuz I sure as hell couldn't afford it then or now.. As for you saying you have bills to pay, give me a ****** break... If this activity isn't in your or your parents budget, you shouldn't be forking the money in the first place.. Your other personal bills should be covered first... This is a recreational activity and should come second to your other priorities, and money shouldn't be spent on this until that $525 is just "extra" money. - Little life lesson for you for budgeting your income, with needs and wants son...

ZRide - If you would have sucked it up and finished the day for the next 4 hours that the class continued for, or even longer that we would have ran past the sched end of class time if needed to get everyone in.., you would have got the full experience along with being invited back the next day if you could fit it in your sched like one student did, or automatically re-signed up for the next class at Tracy at no extra cost, because of the unexpected mechanical failures.. Since for the most part everyone got about a half days worth that stuck it out until the end..

You were progressing the fastest out of all 11 students present, and would have moved up to the maximum the class has to offer and got more out of it than anyone else because of your natural talent by the end of the day. Whether 1 bike was down, and the class had to move a little slower or not.. Maybe the level 2 class, which is MUCH cheaper at under $300, would have been better for you.. This level 1 class is for experienced riders on two wheels, that have little or no knowledge or success with wheelies, and would like to learn SAFELY, which is what is most important, while being under instruction of professionals, which is clear on the website level descriptions.. Along with cancelation or backing out after sign up, which of course if always flexible depending on what happened of course for the sake of customer service.. All the students that finished out the day did not request to go longer than the sched, even though we got only half the runs in than usual, everyone was happy had a blast by the end of the day as the wheelies got better, and also spent some time during talking about some of the wheelie and stunt knowledge in reguards to patience etc that I talked about above, and had a laugh or two about you QUITTERS who left.. LOL

... Instead you ZRide made the worst decision you could possibly make, by QUITTING, and postin up your over exaggeration, and ignorance on this forum board. By that do you deserve your money back, considering the circumstances.. Most definitely NOT! Though I would suggest and welcome you back to another class at no cost, which I believe Tony wouldn't have a problem with as well.. Of course that is not my call, just my suggestion to Tony, which is what I told him since he was not there to see how it went down.. Though maybe a level 2 class would be better for you..

Man I love you guys!! All you stunters or potential stunters at any level are considered brothers to me, but damn 80% of you, from newbs to Og's are also some of the most ignorant stupid ******* I have ever met in my entire life, and feel sorry for you.. Maybe it's just Stuntlife that brings that out idk.. lol Either way I love you dumb ******* to death!

 

Sorry about the long post but there really was that much ignorance here.. Though that's nothing new..

 

I'll teach anyone how to do a wheelie for a 12 pack of beer and you even can use my cell phone for free to call 911 for medical help if you break your ****

 

Which is something I do for anyone who asks or something I see someone struggling with where I can help when I'm taking breaks..

This Level 1 class isn't so much for the rider who wants to progress into being a stunter like us.. Though we do get some, and if they don't have spots like the ones I ride at with experienced stunters like my self to help them out, this is a good way to begin, more than likely spending wayyyy less time, and possibally money and injuries. The students are more so just people who want to learn to safely ride a basic wheelie, gain some more control that they can apply to their other riding, or just for something new and fun..

For example my first class I was instructing, we had a 40yr old track rider who only did the occasional wheelie on accident as he came hard out of corners at the track, by the end of the day, riding out balance point wheelies, manipulating break control, for easily well over 500ft by his last three runs of the day. Seriously rolling on the ground with joy, laughing, hootin and hollarin and having the time of his life!! We had a delay that day as well.. It all depends on the individual... and there will always be that 10% who is a impatient quitter whining lil bitch.. That goes for this and any other business, cages, stunt parts, or selling flowers on the corner or whatever.. lol Your always going to have that cry baby..

 

mikkee your posts are too long to read, but probably mean something important to this thread

to bad this thread went to ****

 

I see where you're coming from, and you've definitley found a niche in the market.. but i can also see the foul taste left in this dudes mouth by the bad experience.

I think both rider and school chalk it up to a learning experience, zride apologizes to Tony for badmouthing his school, zride gets a chance to attend a class with working bikes and ****.. and everyone leaves happy and making wheelies!

in a perfect world...

 

F.A.C.E.
