I just got my M1 in mid July, did the parking lot practise before venturing out into the roads which was totally different and scary since also being a car driver, know what can happen if you do not see the motorcycle rider in your travels. This forum says you should practise and ride alone...

Just did a couple of outings, riding north of Mississauga, and found a few places where the roads are nice and twisty. Can see why a lot of postings mention twisties!! Will still be extending my riding range but now am wondering if there are any relatively new riders ( or patient experienced...

Getting comfortable doing roads at 70km or so (when posted ;-)). Now thinking of going north a bit to try twisty roads. Looking for some advice on what I need to keep in mind when going up hill on curvy roads and then coming back down. Obviously did some stuff at the training course but that...
