Who taught you?

I was fortunate enough to learn from good friends. They had already been riding a few years when I got my first bike. They coached me very well.

Took the MSF course, learned a lot but learned even more by reading message boards and going on small group rides geared towards beginners.

One buddy and I spent an entire day doing panic breaking in a church parking lot after reading a write up another rider did on the topic.

Read, then put into pratice and pratice, pratice, pratice.

It didn't hurt that I also grew up riding dirt.
