I'm looking for a Birthday present for the Boyfriend.

Has anyone been to a Wheelie School and/or could recommend a good one?

Obviously I would have to book myself on it as well so that he didn't feel lonely

Cheers

*cough*

I teach wheelies, but not for six months

Ah...probably a bit late for July.

Why's that then? Dare I ask?

Yep, he can certainly get it up 

I'll have a look.

Cheers

nah, you don't need to pay all that for a wheelie school, just ask my mate cj. off he went to work one day on his wee 125, turned to wave to his mammy at the window, hit a bump in the road and hauled the throttle wide open, whoopee! wheelied all the way up the road  

i think he had to go back and change his trousers however.....

I'd go for that only guess who'd get to clean his leathers!!!!!

Thanks for that. Hmmmm, maybe not such a good pressie then.

He's been on loads of track days as he races minitwins in Bemsee...

Any other bright ideas for bike related pressies?

That is a wicked idea!  

Great. I'll look into it.

Thanks

Andy teaches off throttle wheelies usin a bandit 12. To be honest if you can't wheelie a B12 you should give up.

It's best to learn a technique that suits your bikw. What you learn on a B12 will only really work on a B12.

When I'm back in the swing I'll be delighted to teach any of you how to wheelie on your own bike.

This is me:

AWESOME!  I'd LOVE to learn but I've got a horrible feeling I'd break poor Roger.

Hi Kathy and Ping.

I would be delighted to teach you. I also teach knee-down.

Take a peek.

Hey, count me in. I want to play too!

I have the art of falling off down to a tee, and my bike is a bit of a heap so I'm happy to try and bend it some more.

(The boyfriend ended up with a White water rafting trip to Italy by the way - it was a way to sneak in a holiday without him noticing)
