Learning to ride

First time ever riding a motorcycle. Hey, it's never to late to learn, right?

Just never had much opportunity growing up to learn this sort of stuff. I kind ride the heck out of a mountain bike, but this truly felt 100% different. Still, I can imagine getting the hang of it soon...just need to get comfortable with the 'feel' of a bike that ways 500+ pounds with controls in very different places than what I'm used to.

At least I'm about to check-off one big thing on my list of things to do before I die. Heh.
