    Watch out for that tree........

    It happens; people should start out learning on bikes in a more wide open space for just that reason.

    My brother in law did that to a mailbox the day I helped him start riding. He rode the rest of the day ok (I taught him "If you get in trouble, pull in the clutch and the brake and start over" philosophy), and has been a good rider for about 3 years now.

    I dont suggest the tank top and shorts with no helmet setup that guy had going.

    That video should be part of the MSF course.

    "Lesson one: Target Fixation"

    "Lesson two: Keep your wrist below the throttle"

    "Lesson three: Clutch cuts power to your bike"

    "Lesson four: Gear is good"

    "Lesson five: Trees are hard and relatively immobile in comparison to your motorcycle"

    Five lessons, one thirty second video With bonus lesson, "watch out for that parked car".

    i think that was one of the best parts. At that moment the parked car was the least of his worries
