Beginner Learning Ride with Domenico & Pinku
Beginner riders with Cardo DMC mode are welcome. (With Bluetooth, I (pinku) can only connect with 1–2 riders, including Sena users.) I don’t feel as safe or comfortable if I can’t communicate with you during the ride. So hopefully in the future you’ll consider getting a Cardo Edge.
I’ll take you on rides around less busy trails in Evergreen and South San Jose to Gilroy or maybe even ride all the way to Watsonville to practice.
We’ll practice the following:
**Tips for different group rides
**Group ride etiquette
**Group ride on the freeway
**Passing slower riders and cars
**Lane splitting
**Getting used to your motorcycle’s speed
**Riding on twisty roads and tight turns
**Gain confidence on your bike and more…
You’re welcome to join not only to practice, but also to make friends. I’ll help you form a beginner ride group with other new riders. Hopefully, as you gain more experience, you’ll be able to join our intermediate rides in the future!
Meet: 9/6 Saturday 10:00 am
Location: Starbucks. 2721 Aborn Rd, San Jose.

Please be on time with full tank of Gas. Be polite and let the faster rider pass safely. Passing slow riders on the left side only.
Lunch at Asian buffet $18-$20 in Gilroy or Gizdich Ranch in Watsonville. It’s a social learning ride. Captain Domenico this time will stay in the group or in the back to see how everyone does during the ride and give suggestions.
