Riding lessons

You couldn't pay for riding lesson like these.
I'm not a very experience motorcycle rider (3 years?) in fact all 3 of us are new riders, so we are still learning.

We have covered a lot of different terrain on this trip through all sorts of weather.
On the mountain passes we must have ridden dozen after dozen of turns and bends - each one another opportunity to test your evolving skill; where to brake, what to sight, how to lean etc etc
And riding through heavy downpours and on the resulting greasy roads, and through blustering wind like I've never seen before - everything was a new experience and an opportunity to learn and become a better rider.
It should be obligatory for all new riders to ride cross-country through France
