Maybe... I remember no one wanted to get in the car with me. Things get fuzzy that far back.

I know Mark S. was my very first instructor at AX'ing. He got sick the first day so I got Shoffit the next day.

I've actually had only two instructors at DE'ing. That's it!!! And the first one set the perfect example of how to be an ***. The second, Lee W., was great.

Lee W is a stellar guy. It is always a pleasure to be around him. You are lucky to have had him as an instructor!

Personally I think it is great thread, I look forward to my first day of instruction and hope I don't end up in this thread.

Smart to learn from your mistakes but it is wise to learn from the mistakes of others.

I just became an instructor and my first experiences have all been positive so I don't have much to contribute to this thread. However, should there be a worst instructor's thread, I can tell a story about a PCA instructor at MSR. No, not George, he was one of the best instructors I had. I even rode with him a cupla times and didn't have a problem keeping my food in my stomach

Actually, someone really SHOULD start a worst instructor thread -- it would help us instructors at least as much as this thread has helped students. If nobody does it, I'll start it myself. I'm just wild that way.
