Passed my MSF course this weekend!

the MSF class can be great fun.... if you go there to learn... which is what I did, after a few decades of riding... I learned a lot... not so much "bad" but rather weak (and strong) skills.
I took the ERC (experienced rider's class)..... as well as the RLaP classes.... no pressures.... if you go outside the lines... there's no deduction of points... you can't "fail"... you just learn

The class is only 4 hours so I am a little concerned at getting use to the maneuvers on my bike in such a short amount of time. It took the first day for me to get the hang of all the exercises. The second day I was much more comfortable. But it is amazing what you can do when its not your bike and it has big crash bars on it. :-)
AHA!!! You're a pretty sharp cookie! It didn't take you long to find out ANOTHER difference between us mere mortal riders and the MotorCops. They learned on their CITY/COUNTY/STATE issue bikes. If they tore anything up, their Dept fixed it....all under the umbrella of training. Unfortunately, we have to PAY out of our own pockets what WE tear up and get fixed. If anyone doesn't think that has an effect on your mind when you are leaning that bike and turning a U-turn. So OUR training comes along a LITTLE slower than the COPS. LOL!![/QUOTE]
That right there. Same goes with much else in life-one never knows EXACTLY where the line is, until he/she crosses it-and then has to pay the Piper!
