The most "logical" thought is that you should have it here in
Dallas.... 8^)

I'd love to have a "Professor.jim's traveling KLR tech road show" and
make a living by traveling Canada & the USA, but I don't see how this
could work out financially.
Just do it, you don't need so called gurus to host it, there are quite
a few knowledgeable listers out there. Maybe you could make it
non-KLR specific, after all a lot of questions involve things like
tire changing, electrical poop, carbs, suspension set up, etc. You
could combine it with a short D/S ride & let the experienced off road
riders so newbies how to do it in the dirt.
I was invited to attend a wedding on July 7th in L.A., time isn't the
problem, I can't attend for financial reasons. Now if I could just
figure out a way to charge all those rich Californians $100 per person
for a weekend event .... hey, RM & I could have a battle of the
charging systems & see if his Electrex upgrade really beats my stock
setup.

ps: I've been called a lot of things in my life, but never
"Reverend"!!

Buy some Avon distanzias for a long trip such as you are planning.
