In the rain, in a steaming hot wet leather jacket, with fogged up glasses.
I was nervous and blew the first test because my brakes were wet and my glasses fogged up. You can only amass 12 points and I got 10 right off the bat. I put my foot down in the slow straight ride and went through the box in 11.35 seconds instead of the 12 seconds.
The examiner asked me if I wanted to stop and come back tomorrow, I said hell no lets do it.
Finished all the rest of the tests perfectly. No more deductions. U-turn in a box, into a sharp right turn in a tight lane while using and cancelling turn signals. Full stop at a sign, sharp slow right turn into 6 cones 10 feet apart weaving the cones into a full stop on a line. Then an acceleration, upshift, downshif hard on the brakes to a full stop with the front wheel in a box. Left turn out of the course and park.
Then I did a split S and immediatly went to guns.....

Congrats dude 
Passing is all that counts in the end!!!
If your interested, you should check out the Expericenced Rider's Course. Builds on the foundation made by the basic course.
Don't forget to call your insurance company and let them know you have an MSF card....you should get a slight savings, even if its only a couple bucks...

I took the 3 day experienced rider course 19 years ago. It was a PITA but I passed. I still have that cert. I told that to USAA they said cool, didn't even want the cert, just put it in my record. My insurance is high for a bike, $347 for 6 months. I am looking around but because of the ding I put in that womans car last winter in the parking lot they are making it hard.Originally posted by dustin
