Default Safety Course!!


After my first day (saturday).... I feel so much better about my Sportster... I look forward to todays classes... I learned so much!
Its amazing what a little knowledge can do for us!

If you ever come to GA.. visit the Sunshine Learn to Ride school.. it is fabulous!
http://sunshinelearntoride.dyndns.org/Index.html

I HIGHLY RECCOMMEND IT!

After this weekends classes.. I will begin practicing in my neighborhood, lots of hills and turns.. before I hit the local streets.. (not to worry)...

and as always..... I APPRECIATE ALL TIPS AND HELP FROM YOU VETERANS!

it can be very intimidating for a few months,but with every ride you take the better you will feel/more confident you'll get. whe i bought my wife her bike last year i had to go to work about 3 days later on the tugboat and told her she had to figure out how to ride it..lol when i got home 4 weeks later she had 800 miles on it....well we then went on a 3,000 mile trip she did great and you will also....after 5,000 mile she is still nervous,but she does good.. just take you time,little short rides then venture out a little further each time.
