How did You learn to Ride?

[keelhauld]

Folks,

How did you learn to ride? How did you get your license? I started riding 
mini bikes at 10, minicycles soon thereafter and bought my first street bike 
at 17 having already been riding for 7 years. I then took my test at the DMV 
and passed.

My wife got on a bike for the first time while taking the MSF course, passed 
the test and they stamped her license and she is done. These tests seem too 
easy to pass.....
