The 3 day class is not required. But we automatically get our motorcycle endorsement if we take it. No test at the DMV required. And the class is real good. They teach you how to drive defensively and safely on a motorcycle. I think it would be worth it.

I agree BR.
I had over 7 years and 100,000 miles on motorcycles but let my license lapse.
I took the class and it was a good refresher and I learned things I never knew just from riding.
Winter or fall is the best time to take the course.
I took it in July and about died from the 90+ heat with long pants and shirt on .

Sleep well, I wouldn't waste a perfectly good .45 on you. Or my time anymore.

My problem is that it is a friday-saturday-sunday class. It's difficult as a UPS driver to get a friday off.

I work when I'm sick. Why waste a sick day being home sick?

Honestly, I haven't called out since I was in Package. In Feeders I start early afternoon, so I can get things done during "normal business hours". In Package, we have to bang in in order to get things done!

I've been with Allstate, State Farm, Viking and Auto Club. Auto Club wins hands down.

If you want the best insurance company, find the best bodyshop around and ask them who they like doing business with.
