All new riders should take safety courses and get plenty of practice before they hit the road. One great way to practice at home (or in an abandoned / empty parking lot) is to buy a few cones and set up your own obstacle course.
Practice tight turns, quick stops, accelerating, decelerating and keeping the bike balanced. The more you practice, the better control and confidence you will have on the road. Remember, even experienced motorcyclists practice their skills, especially after a long winter when riding skills tend to get a bit rusty.
Once you can accomplish this feat of motorcycle greatness, we will be impressed:
Until that day, keep on practicing!
