Hi everybody,

It's been 25 years, but it looks like I'll be on a bike again fairly soon. The transportation crunch has caught up with my family (teen-aged drivers and so many cars to go around). SWMBO has somewhat begrudgingly relented on her motorcycle moratorium since we moved to CA.

All this adds up to Mark getting a bike again. Since it's been awhile, I am registering to take the MSF class and get my license upgraded before I start looking for my bike. I already have a pretty good idea what I want based on my previous experience and what I've read here. Still, I want to test ride a few bikes before I pull the trigger.

Thanks for all the great info.

Update: I just registered for the class. Geez, I'm a little giddy about this!

Relax and enjoy it.

Love to hear about your class when you take it.

I had a 20yr break from riding until I got back in the saddle 3yrs ago. I also took some lessons as roads are busier & bikes generally more powerful. I hadn't even had an electric start button before!

Wish I hadn't spent so long thinking about it.

Enjoy

Welcome!

Best of luck with your MSF course and I look forward to seeing you around here!

Hi and Welcome

Have fun picking a bike and in the class and of course have fun and be safe on whatever bike you get.

Thanks, everybody. I think I will do a full report on my class experience. It's coming up in two weeks.

Welcome! Looking forward to your report, and information on the bike you decide to get.

Mark you inspired me. I haven't ridden in 25+ years either so i signed up for a course in late july.
