New Gal in Boston....

Hey I'm just trying to give her fair warning from someone with experience in this matter!

I could make a funny involved post about this but instead I'll just watch your welcome thread slowly move further and further away.

[Slyder]

She's attractive, funny, rides a Suzuki and is a bit of a smartass, I say we keep her

Welcome. Learning to ride in Bwastun huh? You're in for a treat when you head north into the sticks. You have the bike and the gear... MSF

I would definetly try to get away from the city or you'll find out why they call us Massholes real quick!

[Kurlon]

I definitely recommend the MSF course. I came out of there feeling 10 times more comfortable on my bike!!

It's fun, you learn a ton, and you get to push your partner around while making your own engine noises, and then switch off. If you're a jerk like me you make the bike 'stall' randomly... : )

Well I never got to do that! I'm jealous. I was unfortunately in a class of 11 guys and me, the only girl. It ended up being a fun weekend once I was past the initial intimidation!

My class had about 10 people in it and there was only 2 girls but we never did this partner thing either, I missed out! But I have friends that never took the course and failed their first time going to get their license. I think it is just way easier to do the course then get your license right from there. It is really initimidating at first but you quickly get over it. Plus my instructors were great and one was a girl so that was definitely helpful!

My instructors were great as well! And every person that I knew who did not take the course also didn't pass the test on the first try! There was a class across the parking lot from me that had three girls in it...I was a little bitter that they didn't let me switch classes

Yah and actually in my class, only one person failed and it was a guy. There were some parts of the class that were really hard with 10 people in it because a lot of the older guys in the class were going ridiculously slow so that made the stop and go part of the test where we had to hover with the clutch drawn in difficult but other than that it was great. I switched classes because the first one I was in I went to the range day and the instructor was a complete ass and I swear did not like girls at all and because of that I was too nervous to ride with him. What do you know I switched classes and scored in the top of the class. Where did you go? I went to Cycles 128 and I would reccommend it as long as you don't get the instructor I got the first time around.

I actually went to the Concord DMV. I loved it and had a great range. I'll tell ya, I was so sore after that weekend!! Especially my hand from holding that clutch in for hrs on end!

You probably had Kurt Paulson!! He is a great coach.

the skill you are speaking of is called a pause-n-go.
