Default its as if i was going to Disneyland...

Tomorrow morning is my first day of my motorcycle safety class and I'm so excited i cant sleep. i don't sleep well in the first place anyways but this just makes it worse. i haven't been this excited for something in a long time lol! wish me luck! I'm going to the Honda learning center in Colton, Ca for the class.

The MSF is definitely the smartest thing a newer rider can do to improve their riding, and in turn, the enjoyment their bike. Good luck and have fun!

You definitely have a good positive mental attitude. Here's hoping you're having a good learning experience...even as I write this. ;-)

How about posting up your experiences & thoughts from each day's class?

Best class i've taken in all of my life I must say.
Definitely put things into perspective (without scaring u with those gorey car crashes like High School driver's ed)

I wish you luck, and have fun. Seriously, just take it slow and take everything (especially the safety portion) to heart.

See you on the road!

Seriously i hand out cards from the class i took this past year, and i've been riding for 8 years (on and off) it was the second time i went threw it and had no issue with spending the money, take everything you can believe it or not theres a TON of info you will remember going down the road for years to come!

I have taken the basic, experienced, and the military sportbike rider courses from the MSF. Those are the best classes I've had. Worth it! The last was fun as hell.

So any reports? Accidently ran over the instructor's toe? Set the new track record?

Hope you had fun!
