The second one I've seen in the last week (I believe the other was in "no moto content some where, or maybe in there?).
Thanks for sharing!  Where do these air anyway (besides YouTube)?   Have never seen one on the major networks.

Wow!! I heard that Europe is bigger on MS and a lot of these come from there. Just what I heard.

(Hi Stella...how was Femmoto?)

I saw this on another forum & thought "why don't we see this kind of thing in the US"?
I wish all networks would run stuff like this....it just might save a life. Certinally couldn't hurt!

Just takes $coin$ to run those ads and hard to do when the major corporations buy up the time.
Little time left for public announcements unfortunately (not to mention actual shows when you
consider how much time is spent on commercials!).

Femmoto was great – thnx for asking!   Good from a business generating aspect as well as
riding.   Got on the 696.  Oh how fun that bike was!   That was the only Duc I rode.  After I
rode that, I got on a BMW R 650 GS.   As good a bike as it is, I'm so used to the Duc riding
position so I didn't feel quite as comfortable & confident taking it immediately on a track.

Ok, back to the original post:   Thanks for finding and posting this!    :)

I actually read your post in the Womens section after I posted that comment.   :-[
But that is something I think I'd like to try....maybe next year.  Was is it a confidence booster?
(and should we move this conversation to the womens section?)
