I learned to ride in Los Angeles... I loved the test. They send you off to go around the block and if you make it back, you get your license! Exactly what would show that you're now able to navigate the highways at 90mph. I recommend trying dirt biking if you can, it makes you a much better street rider very quickly. Also, if you're too chicken to start off on a motorcycle, get a scooter. Scooters would be perfect in a city like NY and so easy to ride my wimpy girly girl friends can even do it.

Maybe I'll hire a bike there next time I visit. Would be an interesting alternative to the subway! In the meantime, I'm riding and writing my <a href="http://blog.learner-rider.com" rel="nofollow">learner motorcycle rider blog</a> about the experiences of a new learner rider on the way to getting their full motorcycle licence in Sydney Australia. Hope you find it good reading! nice to hear about riding in NYC.

They're pretty bike-friendly (unlike some of the other big companies) and their rates are good for NY...which is still high. Just for reference, I pay under$400 a year for a super-sport, just for liability. A friend of mine pays a little over $200 for an SV650 just for liability (I think it's around $400 for full coverage). I’d say give Progressive a call for NYC.
