    ellenwood isn't bad for training......

    I thought about Roadmasters in Jax..that was until I saw the price tag:biggrin_2555: 6 grand to learn how to do something i already knew...whatever...I decided to go to Roehls schoolhouse...it was free due to me having played Army...my only costs were the room, food, and fuel from jax...and they gave me a little back...which was nice...
    Welcome....get used to the cold...I am only back in jax when its time to play army or when I decide to have a 34 hour at home...(yes I don't spend time at home...I haven't been home for more than 34 hours since I hit the road in august)..but thats my choice...

    Thanks for all the great reviews on ellenwood so looking forward to getting started.......Mic yeah price of roadmasters was expensive and second guessed it at first just worked for me cause needed to find a new carrer in a short time and there school was 3 weeks very vigorous but they teach you alot in that 3 weeks above all safety and confidence which i thought was important to a newbie like myself but,can't wait for the cold tired of this Florida humidity mic you know what i mean

    They teach - and want - you to double clutch. They frown on floating gears.
