There are two ways to get a college degree in the US. One is to go straight into a 4-year college or university. That is what kids do whose fathers have oil wells in their back yards. The other is to go to a 2-year community college, get a transfer degree, and to finish the last two years in a four year school. This costs a lot less and it is what most people in our area do. Gretchen is working hard to graduate from high school in December 2014 so we can go to AUS in Feb/March 2015. She is working extra-extra hard to get a state scholarship to the two year school. It is based on merit. That scholarship, some money I saved, and her working should get her a four year degree. I am also trying to talk her into joining our illustrious military. That is not working at present.
The high school wants here here in Spring 2015 for some classes and tests prior to going to college. It is part of the scholarship. That is when we were going to be in AUS. Now I am looking at things we can do in Summer 2015. Racing in SA on the Kilahari, the Queensland lake, or Pendine are things we are talking about. Not sure where we will go at this time.
The bike is coming along pretty well. This is just a lot of hard work and nothing notable to post or crow about. The tail is having new lower skirts installed to fit around the new mufflers. Some hacking is involved to get my feet to fit on the moved-to-the-rear pegs. The bike has a production frame and full streamlining. This is illegal for any AMA class. We will run at BUB this year in FIM in 1000cc streamlined twin cylinder. It is a 159 mph record so I will get it this year. I can see how close I am and this tells me what I need to do to get the record back where it belongs. On my wall.
