Pokey Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 And what bike did you buy her? Riding with people can hinder you sometimes, or make you ride beyond your comfort zone.....new riders should just go out and ride "period".

hollywood3586 Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Why do you think she is going to hurt herself? Has she ever been on like a four wheeler or a dirt bike before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also scared chitless hoping she takes to riding without to much pain . lol helppppppp First thing get her ass in a MSF course. Once she has done that find a capable and understanding rider to take her into a parking lot and give her pointers and how to's . Once she is comfortable with that start off with small rides and go from there. She might get on the bike and pick it up in no time but if she doesn't don't force her because that will only make it worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the parking lot thing too, I took my wife out to a parking lot every chance we had. You can buy cones at Lowes/HomeDepot or even Walmartin the sporting good section by the skateboards and stuff. Set them up ina parking lot and practice different sceneros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alienpi Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 This guy gives some tips on the MSF course. He also does a wheelie in his approach for the quick stop at 6:50. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PF9JI6HezE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 you shouldn't have bought her a bike, an oven would've been a better choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilbit Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 you shouldn't have bought her a bike, an oven would've been a better choice Haha it is getting warm out so forget using the oven....need to have low electric bills for track time hehe. My plan is to take the MSF course and then to go back and take the advance asap. The streets are scary anymore. Trust me. I had road rash from a bicycle accident when I was 12 years old. Cage Drivers fault also. Road rash sucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mroach Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 i took the MSF before buying a bike to make sure it was something i could and would want to do. the i had a lot of parking lot time before hitting the streets.+1 again on the MSF. took mine well before getting my bike and am glad I did. Funny I still think the low speed stuff they have you do in the BRC is harder than riding with any speed but must know info none the less. Plus if you drop their bike it doesn't matter lol. Even though I didnt drop the MSF bike I learned from the people who did... like you know its a good idea to make sure you put down the kickstand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
