You'll have a great time and learn a lot!
Take some advice: if you bought new boots in anticipation of learning to ride, you'll probably be better off if you have a pair that you alread have broken in, so long as they cover your ankle.
The first day I wore my brand new HD boots, and the toe was so large that I had trouble fitting it under the shift lever. The next day I just wore my old work boots and did fine.
Its funny you mention boots, yeah, I did buy a pair of steel toed biker boots and I wore them in the kickstart program.. Those small 125cc suzy's shifters were hell to get my toe under!!! Not like the 'nice Vstar Yam 650c classic' I sat on today..It had a nice shifter. Heel toe shift. (drool)...
Chances are good the bikes you ride in the BRC won't have heel/toe shifters!
