Okay, I just called like two hours ago, but noone answered. I guess it's a nine to five thing, I'll try again tomorrow afternoon.
Another question though: Do I sign up over the phone? Or do I have to go down to the site to sign up? Or does it vary from place to place?

Signing up for the MSF course

How long of a wait is there usually? I'd like to take it as soon as possible, and am just curious how long I should expext to wait. I live in New York (long island) if that's any help.

You said you still get an allowance. While it is nice to receive an allowance from your parents, it does make you a dependent. You will probably never convince your Mom about a bike until you show that you can earn your own money and be responsible.

You are also relying in your Mom to get you a ...

Thanks for the advice everyone. I really doubt I could ever convince my mom to take the class with me, but i might be able to convince my dad to. I know back in the day he had gotten a motorcycle permit, and then had his friend teach him how to ride...until his friend wrecked on the parkway and ...

Yeah, there is no way I would just show up one day with a bike. I guess I'll just have a mature conversation with her, tell her about the MSF course, safety gear I'll be buying, etc. I'm sure she'll never be happy about it, but as long as she lets me do it that's all that matters really. I should ...

I'm 18 (or I will be in a week), and I've been driving for seven or so months. I'm technically the middle child (twin sister, she's a minute older that me, and a younger brother). I expect to have to pay for the bike and everything myself (except for maybe the MSF course, I might be able to get my ...

Need help convincing my mom to let me get a bike

I'd really like to start riding, but convincing my mom to let me is probably going to be difficult. I "jokingly" brought it up a couple of weeks ago, and she was like "you can get a motorcycle when you move out" She's afraid I'll die or something. My dad is fine with it, so I should be able to use ...
