I have been riding since the beginning of March. I get on the bike whenever I have a spare minute (sometimes when I don't) and commute to work via the motorcycle when I don't have to dodge the raindrops.
I took the BRC class the first weekend in March. On that Monday, I stood in line at both DMVs, one to transfer the title of the 1985 Yamaha XJ700 and get it registered, the other to get the Motorcycle endorsment. My first ride that wasn't in a parking lot I twisted the throttle a little harder than I needed to, felt that acceleration, and I was hooked.
