Last Friday I went to EDI for my first three classes. I thought it is going to be boring theory classes on traffic signs and rules. I was hoping they will just let me ride a motorcycle as I was really anxious to find out whether I still can ride or not. I last rode a motorcycle about 10 years ago. I gave my bike away to my younger brother after I graduated from university.
I was proven wrong on my skepticism. There was no theory class ! After I have been introduced to my instructors Mr Ikmal Khan and Mr Aijad Khan they asked me to choose my helmet and jacket. After a brief introduction on the switches and levers on a bike, the remaining 1 hour was spent on my bike making circles, stop and riding in real traffic together with my instructors and other students.
I was very satisfied to find out that I can still ride and have not forgotten all the skills. In fact my instructor commented that he was impressed to see my performance in my first day.
Last night I downloaded and watched Peter Fonda's Easy Rider (1969) movie. The film was really about riding and the scenes in Midwest US. I didnt really enjoy the story (as there was no story to watch except two cool dudes go out riding) but the Captain America and Billy Bike harley bikes were really revolutionary in its design.
But riding one will sure can tear both arms apart from the shoulders.
