1) No front brake on gravel/sand.
2) Everyone in a cage is stupid & out to KILL you.
3) Watch out for Deer they are stupid & out to KILL you.
4) Never mess with the little guy with the 1% patch, he has friends, lots of em.

make sure you know how to kick start a bike before you try,

never let you leg get straight when kickstarting a bike.

never ride naked

dont let the cop giving you a warning know that your on your way home from pleasuring his wife and her best friend

If you've been riding for 20 plus years I don't think your gonna get anything from it. I took it 2 years ago before I got my M license don't know if I even got a whole lot from it.

Be EXTRA careful when approaching

- Gas Stations
- Malls
- Driveways

lots of accidents happen around these places, when somebody realizes he HAS to refill, or buy something, or his friend's home is right there.

"Bikes dont feel road rash"
And the other one
"Bikes don't crash alone"
Expect everyone else to try and kill you
Treat every intersection as if there are cars waiting to pull out in front of you
Watch out for them little furry critters
Turtles DO NOT make good ramps
Proper tire inflation will assist with proper handling of the bike
No front brake in the corners
No front brake in Gravel
ARRIVE ALIVE

Watch everything, everywhere.
Trust no one out there, they all want you dead.
No one sees you. Not all hear you.
Don't be a dick.
