hey halflife 2, i had a similar experience to yours. it was hard coordinating all the controls. it didn’t help that i’m 6′ 6″ and i had trouble with my long legs and the foot controls (we used a buell blaster). the bumpus harley davidson of memphis ran the BRC and they were wonderful. Unfortunately i crashed and bruised my knee and elbow. My ego took the biggest hit though, because i was slowing everybody down. After the crash i left but will be going back for another workshop, then try to complete the BRC. My instructors were amazing and very supportive.
The crash and difficulties just made me mad at myself and i fully intend to go back and master this motorcycling thing. There is absolutely no quit in me and i still want to ride. This is an amazing website with great forums and all the responses reassure me that I’m not the first person to screw up at a BRC. lucky i live in a quiet part of town and i fully intend to practice, practice, practice till i nail this thing down before i ever venture on the road by myself.
