Try to get into the Team Oregon class before you do too much riding. It's a lot easier to build good habits than it is to break bad ones. Also, know that so long as it is under 250cc's (and insured, and licensed, and you can legally get it to the course, etc, etc), you can bring your scooter to class and use it instead of using the motorcycles that Team Oregon provides.

Congradulations on your new addition :)
