Good afternoon to everyone. I found this forum a few months ago and figured I’d say hey. I’m 19, live in Plainfield Illinois and currently ride my dads 93 Honda cbr 600. She’s a bit beat up and sat in the garage for four years straight, but a new battery and rectifier plug later and she runs pretty good. I got my license back in June and ride every chance I get even recently in the cold. I always wear a helmet as well as a jacket with pads in it. I look forward to learning as much as possible from all you people with more experience than me.

Welcome from northeast Ohio! Learning from experienced folks in a forum is good, but it can't substitute for real training from real instructors on a real course. I figure you probably had to take some kind of class to get your license in Illinois, but don't let that be the only official training you ever get.

Oh, and have fun!

I did have to take a five day training course to get my license. I’ve thought about taking more courses over the summer. Here in Illinois, I can take them for free. It’s 20 bucks to reserve your seat and you get the money back at the end of the class, which is pretty cool.

That $20 would be well worth the money, specially since you get it back! Go for all the education you can get.
