Re: Motorcycle training schools?

["Ron Buchalski" <rbuchals@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'll second this recommendation.  I wanted to learn how to ride a motorcycle 
because I was considering a bike, but didn't know how to ride one.  The 
course ran Thursday through Sunday.  Thursday and Friday evenings were spent 
in the classroom, reviewing rules of the road, how to be visible, problems 
to be aware of, etc.  All day Saturday and Sunday morning were spent in the 
parking lot, on bikes supplied by the program.  At the end of the course, we 
were given a riding test to pass the class.  If we passed, we were allowed 
to take the second test for the MD Motorcycle license.  I passed, and 
received my license.

It's the best way to learn.  Try convincing a friend or neighbor to let you 
take his/her bike for a ride to "see if you can do it".

Go to http://msf-usa.org/  for more info on the program, or


http://www.ganet.org/dps/  for info on GA programs.

Or call 800-245-4410 for info in GA.

Good luck!
