The little signs in our windows, inviting rookies to ask for a ride,
resulted in two folks asking yesterday. This wrinkle, although not as
effective a teaching tool as an instructor riding/driving approach, requires
no administration and provides some instruction with little disruption to
the driving competitor. Our self-imposed limit restricts riders to 1st, and
when 4 runs are offered, 2nd runs.
Lets see more signs in the windows of the cars of all you great experienced
drivers!
