>>521897More dangerous than living your life in a cage, sure... everything comes with risks though.
I'm a big fan of learning in the dirt.
>Dirt bikes crash really well, because you're going to fall>No cars with distracted drivers piloting them>Learn in low-traction and figure out how to handle the bike, then you don't dump it when you hit some gravel in a parking lot>Forces you to learn how to pick your lines and commit to itSpend some money on gear, then buy a bike. Helmet, gloves, boots. Depending on the riding, knee guards or pants w/ knee pro, shoulder/chest protection, elbow protection, back... Road rash sucks, and body armor's for real.
>Pic related, me at a race a few years backOn the street... always leave yourself an out, and watch your six. A bike has power and maneuverability far beyond what a car has, use that to your advantage.
Probably the biggest thing is seat time.
The loose nut behind the handlebars is what makes them "donorcycles".
