My introduction to bikes was riding dirtbikes in my early teens. Then a 30 year gap ... Then a road bike. I think that early experience has served me well.
The only thing I had to undo was putting my foot on the ground, or near the ground, when slow turning. And learning proper slow-riding technique.
I still like to know what a bike I'm riding is capable of (where it's limits are). It makes me more confident that I know what it can handle if I get into trouble.
However, as Lancer pointed out, in the Savage/Sporty thread, age has made me slow down, and be a bit more cautious in general.
