Thank you everyone! You all got me to level 6! Special shout outs: @Robert Moeser @Diana Ramirez @Elad Best @Chris Bennett and of course DDTF who go the extra mile to help me and everyone else rank up. No better crew out there than the SMART Rider Crew! <3

Update: we passed! Thank you @Daniel Tolomei for the drills and instruction. They helped A LOT! The instructor is wearing the gray button up. So far so good. We are doing it on Groms, they are kinda beat up from all the students that have used them but good enough. Husband loves them and I think they are a lot of fun. We have a great instructor and a class of 5 (the sixth didn’t show up) so we finished the day early. My only issue has been getting used to the clutch/throttle combo in the “turning from a stop” drill. I freaking stalled like 5 times in 6 turns around it, ugh. I KNOW I need more throttle to get going but dang it it was a pain in the butt and frustrating. I’m glad I was allowed to stop the paddle walk because it was messing me up, an extra thing I could not get past. I did make a lil mistake: went to the class without enough calories on board. Even drinking coke and water and eating snacks were not enough. Tank was empty by the time the last drill was done. I recommend a good breakfast before the class so that this doesn’t happen to you. No video or photos were taken, I don’t want the distraction. I may set up the camera on a tripod tomorrow but that is still a distraction so maybe not. Well I will let y’all know how tomorrow goes. 🙂

Here's a new patch I have coming.

40yo new rider from luxembourg. Upgraded from 125cc to 400cc and crashed the bike and my knee within a month. Back on the 125cc and calmly accepting this is maybe good enough for now

I usually greet (two fingers down in general, but it's not a religion). and i seem to notice patterns sometimes. Like vespa riders and electric bikes, i'm not always sure if they know what i mean because i bet most riders don't greet them. Yesterday i put my fingers out, and this delivery guy was just puzzled. He was wearing a full face helmet. But his eyes, and shoulders and head movement said everything. I could literally see a speech bubble saying "Why does everybody keep pointing at the road in front of me?"
