Most if not all riders have gone down in their early learning phase. I know when I started in the dirt I went down several times and except for the times my bike wasn't ridable I got right back on and rode the rest of that day. I also had a couple nasty wrecks on the road thanx to some helpful cagers and once thanx to 3 bottles of JD and 2 cases of pounders between me and 1 friend of mine. I was still under age then so it isn't on my record plus I got ARD. When I got out of jail I went down to the impound swapped the broken clutch lever for the unbroken break lever and rode it home. So I guess my point is if you really want to ride get back on your horse.
