Hi Ladies and Gents,

I've done some lurking and decided to dive in with my first question, which I'll post in the General Chat section.

At present I am a former and future rider. Haven't been on a bike since I had a little Honda as a teenager mumble-mumble years ago. Just got my permit and will take a new rider safety course as soon as I can find one nearby.

I'm here to learn. Any suggestions for an old rookie would be greatly appreciated!
