Hi,
I used to ride dirt bikes 30+ years ago. My bf (funny he's 54) has been riding all his life. I have been riding behind him for a long while and want to ride by myself. I haven't been on a cruzer by myself in 24 years. I am afraid to have him teach me. He is a wonderful patient man but I would just rather have a female do it. (I have taught so many women to shoot that I guess I am partial to our brand of patience). I live in Nashville, TN. Any suggestions would be appreciated! My email is : camibrasher@yahoo.com
Thank you.

Cami, I agree with Sapphire. You should take a beginners riding course. That is the best way to learn to ride. Our husbands/boyfriends/friends may have a ton of patience and experience, but it's still better to learn from professionals who do this all the time. Then after you pass the class, I would suggest spending time in a parking lot doing a lot of practice before heading out into heavy traffic. Good luck!

It is not a good idea to learn from someone who is not a MSF instructor because you could pick up on their bad riding habits. Take a basic rider course instead. I had no riding experience and was able to take the class and pass, earning my motorcycle endorsement for my license. I've learned many valuable safety tips that I have already applied to my learning experience on my new bike. They go over the basics, choosing riding gear, riding in different weather conditions, riding in heavy traffic, encountering obstacles in the road, and much more.
