Well, you might as well go with throttle up. Just kidding.
Like many have said, rider/training courses are excellent. Take one just for fun, then decide. I will say that I am fairly conservative where/when I ride due to traffic and stay away from certain high volume areas. I live in Colorado and can usually plan a route that keeps me off major clogged areas. I am much more aware of surroundings even off the bike because my motto is everyone I see on the road is capable of killing me. But the truth of the matter is a bike is harder to see, and with the distractions of drivers nowadays you really have to keep your head on a swivel. But you have to be comfortable enough to get out and ride so take a course, talk to the instructors about day to day riding and decide for yourself. MCs aren't for everyone.
