If you have the urge for it, you should definitely go for it. In the worse case, you end up spending a bit of money, you get the itch flushed out of your system, and you know you wouldn't crave for it anymore. In the best case, you've found yourself a new long-long passion to keep pursuing.

At the same time, if you have poor self control / judgement, you can easily get yourself killed. Sometimes, even when you are careful, and you are riding responsibly, you can still get hurt (or worse).

There. You have been warned.

I've only actively ridden over a 2 - 3 year span before a number of close calls -- at times my own fault, and at times at the fault of others -- gave me enough of a reality check to stop riding. But I'm glad I did it, and I immensely enjoyed those few brief years when I rode.

For me, the biggest thrill in riding is the absolute sense of freedom you get from it. When you're on a bike, you're so immersed in the surrounding environment, and there is just so much you can do, and so much to take in. And the best thing is, you have to work for it. It isn't just twisting your wrist to get the bike to shoot off like a speeding bullet (even though, hey, that could be fun too). You really have to work the bike, and you really have to put yourself into the riding that the sense of achievement is incredible. And it doesn't even have to be fast.

I'm sure others will chime in and come with their own recommendations, but I'd wholeheartedly recommend you to go with Pacific Riding School:
