Texas Tornado Boot Camp
Edwards announced in August 2010 that he is building a motorcycle training facility on a 20-acre (81,000 m2) plot of land near Lake Conroe. It is going to be a premier training facility for those new to racing, motorcycle enthusiasts, as well as professionals looking to polish up on their skills. In addition to the normal training classes and track time Edwards is offering the "Colin Edwards Experience". This will give participants the opportunity to spend four days with Edwards. This will include Classroom time, track time, and hanging out with Edwards racing RC cars, and playing paintball with the man himself.
The camp is slated to open in February 2011 and it's been noted that reservations will begin soon.

“Calling a taxi in Texas is like calling a rabbi in Iraq.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
“The sumptuous age of stars and images is reduced to a few artificial tornado effects, pathetic fake buildings, and childish tricks which the crowd pretends to be taken in by to avoid feeling too disappointed. Ghost towns, ghost people. The whole place has the same air of obsolescence about it as Sunset or Hollywood Boulevard.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“The best quality tea must have creases like the leathern boot of Tartar horsemen, curl like the dewlap of a mighty bullock, unfold like a mist rising out of a ravine, gleam like a lake touched by a zephyr, and be wet and soft like a fine earth newly swept by rain.”
—Lu Yu (d. 804)
“The triumphs of peace have been in some proximity to war. Whilst the hand was still familiar with the sword-hilt, whilst the habits of the camp were still visible in the port and complexion of the gentleman, his intellectual power culminated; the compression and tension of these stern conditions is a training for the finest and softest arts, and can rarely be compensated in tranquil times, except by some analogous vigor drawn from occupations as hardy as war.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
