My first time on a motorbike was in Si Racha in Thailand. The first time I took the bike out on the main road I almost got creamed by a semi-truck because I drove on the right side of the road (I'm from US) and in Thailand the drive on the left. It freaked me out so badly that I was always extremely safe thereafter.
I never had a single wreck and drove a motorbike in nearly every country I went to: Thailand, Bali, Vietnam. Honestly, it's a great way to get around but I would not recommend it to someone who doesn't know exactly what they are doing.

The Maximally Pathetic Schema: Xs who labor to convince Ys that “I’m not one of those despicable Zs!,” when in fact it is obvious to the meanest intelligence that the Ys see no difference between Xs and Zs, don’t care anyway, and would love to throw both Xs and Zs into a gulag.
