well i think i decided on a college to go to. i am gonna go to MMI and be a motorcycle technician. there are 2 schools, one in orlando florida and one in pheonix arizona. my question is if i decide to bring my wheeler(when i get a new one) what city would be better for riding? orlando or pheonix? i know riding shouldnt be the deciding factor when goin to college, but it is in my case becuase i cant give it up!!!!

check around those area for local tracks or associations..... just get on google.com or somethin and search around... both places might be good.... specially since u wont have to deal with bad winters as much

I thought that was just a 6 month program or something like that? I know a kid that went to the one in florida had a blast but said the school sucked. But he can rebuild a dirtbike with his eyes closed.

If I remember right it's a 9 month program. A rep came in and talked to my auto class this fall. The only downside is it costs somewhere around $19,000 for the year. On a brighter side I work at a marine dealership and a guy that works with me in service went to MMI for the marine end of it and he has nothing but good things to say about it. He went into the program knowing absolutely nothing and I can say he knows his stuff now.

well a few minutes above deltona theres a huge riding area of dues and trails its like 32 miles wide and 5 miles long full of trails so riding in flordia doesnt sound too bad to me ride all year around down there:devil
