Just passed the MSF coarse this Sunday. I can finally drive legally and not shit my pants whenever a cop is around. I'm kind of disappointed though. EVERYONE passes when there were some people who obviously should never ride a bike on public roads. I learned a fare amount and suggest everyone take it. Doesn't matter though really sense everyone has to take it starting July. lol.

 

Congrats. LMK if you ever want to go ridin on the weekends...

 

it's because it's a "basics" course. they pass if they get the basics down and then it's up to them to further their training. most stuff that needs to be learned comes from seat time and actually being out there on the road. you have to understand, half of those people haven't been riding a bike illegally like you, so they don't have the experience.

 

I took the course a couple weeks ago in Bradenton. There was a lady that just wasn't getting it, didn't lay the bike down or anything but they sent her home.

 

It's no worse than getting a car driver's license... you don't have to know how to drive to get a license to drive a car either. In my opinion, both should be a hell of a lot harder.
