new girl looking for a bit of advice

Hei there i'm kinda unexperienced with bikes, i've been on a few and even went away for a bikers weekend but I dont ride myself. I've fallen totally in love with bikes and wanna get my own but I don't know how to ride yet? Any advice?

I started and learned off my dirtbikes. A dirtbike will teach you clutch control,balance and if you dump it you wont trash it.

Re: new girl looking for a bit of advice

a) go to a motorcycle training class...they give you a bike to learn on and teach you all the basic fundamentals.

b) sweet talk the guys into letting you ride theirs

c) get a mini pit bike to learn the concepts of twist throttle, counter steering, brake etc.

D) all of the above
