You are lucky enough attending a course that hopefully will teach you basic survival skills......

Fair weather and good instructors is what I wish for you.

My best!

I had my first day today! Now I see why they call it basic riders course. It's really basic and started out slow. The heat sucked though. The instructor was really nice and patient, didn't learn much I'd say though. It was nice practice someone reminding me to keep chin up and looking far ahead while riding. Realized I look closer to the ground. Their was a girl who started crying. I was really shocked.

I thought they had you doing most of the training the first day and actually go out riding on the 2nd day. I am going to practice going really slow, making turns, u-turns on my bike here to prepare for it. Let me know if there is anything else I need to practice on so if I have any problems I can have them help me there figure out what I am doing wrong.
