I almost did give up, but in the ER laying on that bed I decided that walking away afraid wasn't the answer. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't afraid, however I want to learn to ride, even if I have to learn by reading books, forums, and watching YouTube videos. I keep thinking back to the fact that I was afraid of the power of the bike even though it's a 250.

I'm new, with no experience, and eager to learn.
