Congratulations and welcome to the forum. That class will be worth its weight. Just take it easy and remember, get as much saddle time as you can. Grew up in Kalispell and have family there now!

Talking First Ride
I rode my Sportster for the first time today. My dad took it to the middle school parking lot and worked with me for a while. I can now start and stop with a fair amount of confidence and I was getting the hang of turns in both directions. Tried some turns from a stop....Left was ok, right....not so much. Rode some figure 8's. Shifted into second a couple of times. Basically no speed at all, but wow what a rush still. I can't wait to learn more and get out on the road!
