The always informative Captain Crash wrote this post on the Beginners Bikers Forums. I think it should be mandatory reading for *everyone* thinking of becoming a motorcycle rider!
So. One day, you are in your car and you look up and ZOOOOoooommmm, a motorcycle zips by. As you watch the chrome twinkle and fade you look out over the hood of your non-denominational crud coated car and think to yourself, 'I want to do that.' Which slowly becomes, 'I can do that, I mean really? How hard can that be?'
PRESTO-DIGITALIS! You've decided to become a motorcyclist. Later, after dinner and a relaxing beverage, you decide it's time to tell your--(circle one please) Wife-Husband-Girlfriend-Boyfriend-Companion-Longtime Companion-Passed Out Roomie-Stray Cat That Snuck in the Window-Jay Leno (he'll understand!)--that you're gonna get a bike.
'Not on your life!' Spits a finger waggling Stray.
'But I'll take a class!' Says you (wondering how a pizza thieving tabby became your "In Case of Emergency" contact).
'What are THEY gonna teach you?' Says the Stray as it rifles through your empty pizza boxes and all those Jack in the Box wax papers you've nibbled a little past wax to get all the cheese.
Good question! What are THEY going to teach you?
Allow me to illuminate.
