Going riding with others, especially with good riders, will help your skills immensely Magua! Just follow them as best you can and learn from their riding style.

Just dont follow the example when they wheelie past you on the Waipuna bridge...

Or you could find yourself a nice twisty bit of road,learn it in your own time,thus gaining confidence in yourself with out trying to stay with a better rider.Trying to keep up with better riders gets people in the shit like nothing else will.
Think about this,one or two corner gap and your pushing to keep up and out of your element,then you find the gravel and your already going to fast.It's happened to a few other KBers already.
Find your limits on a road you know,then work on improving them,don,t ever follow another rider beyond your own comfort zone.

Following that example takes years to get good at...most newbies won't dare try!

Fully agree with what you say here, but in my post I said "good riders" not "better" riders. A good rider could be someone at/near your same skill level - that was where I was coming from.
