    Noob in need of an...escort?

    Hey guys, met a few of you last weekend and as you know I'm still rolling on the permit. I have already paid for a class a Full Throttle, but my weekends are tied down until I get my car rebuilt. I was curious if anyone would want to ride/"supervise" down to Boulder Fridaymorning with me so I can take the test at the DMV and just get it out of the way. If I fail at least we'll have a nice ride early morning right? My appointment is at 8:15AM so I would like to arrive there at 8 meaning leave Quaker Steak area around 7:30AM.

    Text me 303-946-2597. I know most of you have to work so I know this is a long shot. If not I'll go by myself! Unsupervised muhahahahaha

    Thanks guys, Jay

    I think a MC permit only requires 'supervision' if you're under 21?

    Back when I had my test the DMV asked people who rode in with me. Might have changed.

    For me, I took the written test, got my permit and rode by myself. I don't remember a supervision requirement but I was also 25 at the time. I do remember from my teenager days that a drivers permit required to be with someone 21 or over.

    I rode in, took my test and that was it.

    Word of advice: If you have a friend with a smaller bike (a DRZ would be great) - take the test on that. The cones they'll have you ride around and stop within are tiny (like 6 inches tall) and difficult to see from a big bike. This one guy on a new gold wing, temp tags and all dropped his bike.

    Well, tipped over... those gold wings have a built in crash cage called "exhaust"

    Have you looked at FT's week night classes? I took my class that way because of busy weekends and it was great. Small class size and lots of ridding time. Its like 3 or 4 nights so its a bit more broken up but it worked for my schedule.

    FYI from -

    • CO Motorcycle Permit Driving Restrictions (Under 18 years old)

      • You may only ride under the supervision of an adult 21 years old or older who also holds a Colorado motorcycle-endorsed driver’s license.
      • If that adult is not your MOST instructor or your parent/guardian, they must have your parent/guardian’s permission.
      • If you are under 16 years old, you may only ride under the direct supervision of your MSF motorcycle instructor.

    Side note, if you have time this weekend, go to the DMV (Mississippi close to federal is the one I know) and print out the course and practice it a few times. They have the full course painted on the parking lot, sans the cones, and you can practice a few times. I did that and got a perfect on the test. Just a thought it you were worried at all.
