I had two riding hands-on lessons today. As I wrote before, I had decided to lift the restriction on my riding license and went through the procedure to enter a driving school two weeks ago. Today was the first day of the practical exercise.
At first, I was given a 750cc motorcycle, a Honda CB750 and told to follow the instructor dragging it. Fortunately I could tow it for about 5 minutes and reached a small space. The instructor made the motorcycle lie down gently and ordered me to raise it from both sides. As you can imagine, 750cc motorcycles are heavy and this exercise is a basic item and if I couldn't do it I would be expelled from the school. I was nervous, but I completed this task.
The second task was to stop within 8 meters from a speed of 30km/h. I managed to accomplish this task. The last task was a straight narrow course (width 30cm, length 15m, height 5cm). I was required to go through in more than 10 seconds. It was difficult and I have to try again next time.
The weather was nice and it was the first time I'd ridden a big motorcycle. I had a great time today. The silver motorcycle in the center of the picture is the motorcycle that I rode today.
