[QUOTE="Kevin_Ireland, post: 935252, member: 23459"] Like many others I learned to ride as a kid on dirt bikes and I agree that is the optimal way to learn but it isn't the only way to learn. I'm even looking at buying a dirt bike for my wife, who started riding last year, as a way for her to sharpen her current skills and to learn new ones. That being said, not everyone can afford to buy dirt bikes this year and then buy another bike next year. Also, they may not have anywhere were they can go and ride them. We are fortunate that their is a OHV park nearby where we can pay to ride but not everyone has that opportunity. If you don't or can't afford it, it is still possible to learn on a street bike. The majority of new riders do it that way. [/QUOTE]
