Advice on the course?

Mistress Maygin · 03-12-2008, 03:29 AM

So, now that I can afford this stuff, I want to make sure I get the best education for my money.

I know that the courses take place in various parking lots. Schools, casinos, etc. What I don't know is what the difference is. Are these all the same people where I will learn the same stuff, or will one be better than the other?

Anyone in the South Florida area: can you tell me where the best place would be to go? I'm willing to drive, within reason, for the best possible course. In all reality, if the best one, hands down, is in Tampa- I've got friends that live there so I'm there.

Anyone else: tips? advice on what to look for, how to prepare, etc?

I'm an overachiever. And a teacher's pet. And a perfectionist. Help me out here!

To clarify, I mean the MSF course.

really all MSF courses should be teaching the same material. the only diffrence SHOULD be the quality of the instruction.

take what they teach you and PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE by yourself. in a big ass parking lot... well once you get your bike

also remember that they'll want you to have boots, jeans, long sleaves... preferbly a riding jacket, and full fingered gloves. A helmet is also required but most courses I've seen can provide that.

I'd say get your gear and ride in that... that way your learning in the gear you'll be wearing anyways...

some states offer a riding school where they provide the bike and helmet for a reasonable fee. They train you in the basics,just like driver's ed except with bikes. It's been a long time but as I remember it the msf course doesn't deal in basic operation that much. Plus they definitely didn't provide bikes to ride or gear,again as I remember it. I don't know what your skill level is but if you need basic operation training you should go with a state run program first or get help from friends that already ride(like OSP!) before taking the MSF course.

I disagree... friends will most likely teach you their bad habits, it'd probably be better to just learn from MSF instructors from the bery beginning... That being said, I know Neonspeed is an MSF instructor, but he's all the way in Jax... Perhaps he can point you to the right people down south...

Oh yeah... and you fucking attention whore... how dare you want to better yourself and gain actual motorcycle knowledge. I can't fucking stand curb squirrels with genuine interest in motorcycle riding... Stupid bitch...

Sorry... couldn't resist.

We've got a few coaches on board... Neon, Beefcake, Sterling and PhiSig are all MSF rider coaches.

And they're all in Jax... Is this some sort of world domination plan in action? I want in... I promise not to vomit on anything... anything super important that is...
