learn to ride a motorcycle

hahaha, so the dream had been postponed for a while – i’d always wanted to learn to ride a motorcycle. My dad knows how to ride a motorcycle and i’d always intended to get a motorcycle licence before i got a drivers licence… then i got hit by a car on my (regular pedal) bicycle and my mom thought “there’s no way i’m letting him ride anything with less than four wheels” so i got my car licence and became complacent =/ ...then (or rather now) while looking through my drawers for stuff to take back with me (being back for thanksgiving is a good time to pick up left-behind items—i.e. GUITAR!!! – but that’s beside the point) i found m’ol California Motorcycle Handbook (2003) and began reading it again… and making plans.
