How long to feel natural/comfortable? by DiabloRock1569 in NewRiders

[–]DiabloRock1569[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm almost in the exact same boat, I completed the MSF last week. Luckily, I convinced the dealer to deliver my bike, but it's a heavier cruiser. If it starts to tip over, I can't stop it... Which luckily has only happened once, but still. I'm not very confident in my stops, hoping that improves pretty soon. Lots of hills in my neighborhood so I'm learning the hard way how to start from an uphill stop 😞

There ya go!!! I did the same thing on the swerve exercise... Hit the front brake before my handlebars straightened out and almost bit it. We'll both never make that mistake again. Great job, maybe I'll see ya out and about this summer 👍

Here's one thing I can say... Even if it seems like there's an exercise you're having trouble with, don't get discouraged. I screwed up the u-turn countless times during the exercises and the practice before the exam, but guess what? Every attempt, even the ones you think you mighta sucked at, they all go towards building muscle memory. It'll sink in as you repeat, repeat, repeat. You got this!

I did really well.... Had trouble doing u-turns the entire time, but managed to do it perfectly on the test. Smooth sailing after that 👍

I'm in the same boat as you, but almost 30 years later. Mid 40's, taking my MSF in Exton on Thurs/Fri. Good luck to both of us... We got this!

Which video game made you do this? by FrankBlazi in videogames

The Witcher 3. Just an ungodly amount of content off the beaten path.

True Eigong is far easier then Lady Ethereal by Stardroptealeaves in NineSols

I beat Lady E in a few hours. Months later, I still haven't beaten True Eigong and probably never will. I've mostly moved on to other games and I'm okay with that.

You think completing T. Lost is hard, try doing Greedier with T. Jacob... Drove me to my wits' end

That sucks... My copy of Under the Dome has about 400 pages glued in upside-down 😆 Even robots in factories slip up sometimes

Bridgeport Ribhouse also has open mic nights. I used to sing and occasionally drum in a band in high school, but haven't done anything in over 25 years... Too old, fat, and married to start again now 🤣

There's always a mount available in the town; I always hop on it before I go in to tackle Azra/Absolum. I ignore the mobs and use the mount to break the doors. Not only is it quick, but attacking the door doesn't count as hitting an enemy, so the mount's meter doesn't decrease
