I'm still figuring out what my plans for the bike are. First and foremost, a weekend bike so I can have some "me time". Light touring is possible, more like one-night stays. I'm likely not going to log big miles, but packing a pannier and heading out of town for a night or two would be good. Track is possible but not a focus. btdt
I've heard good things about the sbk school. Are you talking about Keith Code's school? I think it would be money well spent to up the skill level and try and stack the odds further in my favor.
