No kidding, I was watching the video and I was all over the place. lol.... I had a good time though. The first couple of sessions, I hated it.... I was thinking, "man, I'm gonna stick to canyon carving!" But I was taking it easy throughout the first few sessions and wanted to establish some good reference points for braking and shifting.
I had a spook on my last session which almost caused a highside, but I managed to ride it out. I hit a dip in the middle of a corner while fully leaned over, the front end started to wobble and my body was pitched over the side... one leg was dragging on the floor and one leg was on my passenger seat.

I ended up straightening the bike and keeping a steady throttle, relaxed my grip, and rode through the dirt. The instructor who just happened to ride behind me came to me in the pits and said, "dude.... that was the baddest save I ever saw!" lol.... I had a awesome time though.
