Well, I thought about going and doing the course/rodeo at Algonquin College in Ottawa this coming spring...then maybe buy something like a Ninja 500...small enough to handle, cheap enough to not be too too angry about dropping, and powerful enough to scare myself a few times.

I agree that there should be some sort of rule that states people with a liscence for a short period of time shouldn't be allowed to ride certain types/sizes/class of bikes until they have more time and experience.

Kinda like the new car...don't "hot-dog" it all the time, as I still don't know it well enough to know what it will do, and when/how it will do it...
