good reminder. i never rode anything close to a bike before buying mine. then went out and bought a brand new cbr 600. i plan on definitly trying to stay around some people that have a good head on their shoulders and dont push too hard. i would say that most people buying bikes this year are already in wayyyy over their head. Question is, without taking an actual coure. what nyspeeders are gonna man up and teach people the ins and outs of riding. Most people do not have a good connection to the og’s or responsible riders around locally. I feel fortunate to be close to several VERY good riders not only on the board but just around locally. ---

And always make sure your tires are in good condition with lots of tread before you go out riding…😃 ---

most people know how to ride, it’s really really just seat time that makes the difference. go out and ride around town by yourself if no one will ride with you. i wouldn’t suggest back roads incase something happened, but just being on the bike you’ll figure shit out. there really arn’t many tricks to riding that someone can “teach” you. look thru the turns, practice proper braking technique, blah blah blah. you need to get the basics down first before you can think about advanced stuff. make shifting 2nd nature, make clutch work 2nd nature, etc etc. ---

I’ve taught two close friends how to ride in the past two years, im sure ill be giving pointers out to a few more this year since a lot of my friends are going to be on them. Two of said noobs are signed up for the MSF course for april, which is great to hear :tup: But im worried about this summer, there are a few people off the top of my head that i know that should NOT be on new sportbikes. I guess time will tell ---

Good points, and im glad you will be around some OG’s. After you posting you hit 100mph+ already in the middle of winter kind of makes me wonder. You going to take the course? there are a few spots open still, kat and mike are taking it together… ---
