That’s a big step in building the confidence factor. I am finding that it is helpful, although this sounds overly simple, to ride as frequently as possible. Even if it’s just 30 minutes or so every day, or every other day, your comfort level with what you’re learning, and the traffic around you, will increase each time you go out. If you have a period of days (or weeks) that you can’t ride, it seems to make that first ride out a bit more unnerving. My hubby & I got our cards laminated, went the next day to the motor vehicle dept. and took the written test, and got the M endorsement on our licenses. It really does make you feel more empowered to be LEGAL in that area!
