Where as Keith Code's TOTW2 is more difficult to comprehend as a total beginner because it's hard to associate what he's talking about without the experience of being on two wheels under your belt.
Agreed. Code also has a, shall we say, "unique" communications style.

FYI Hough also has a follow-up to Proficient Motorcycling.

Right now, the important thing is to get in that seat time. Don't let the flood of information overwhelm you. You're starting off on the right foot. Stay curious, keep that eternal learner mindset going. You're gonna have a great time!
