Any good spots to practice wheelies?

Looking for a spot with little or no traffic to perfect my wheelies. Anywhere in the Austin metro area but in the city would be preferred.

Hi as said above im thinking about getting a motorcycle. Honestly i would like to know yalls opinions on it. It would be my main mode of transportation. I've never ridden before and dont know how but im a quick learner. Is it worth getting one? What are the pros and cons and what should I be prepared for if I go ahead with the idea?

Anyone riding with an airbag vest?

I know they aren’t cheap, but I decided to pick up one based on peer pressure from my riding buddies. I have to say that I’m impressed with how comfortable it is and along with my mesh jacket, it was not uncomfortable at all riding in mid 90s morning temps this past weekend.

With the extra protection it offers and the reduction of impact force in an accident, I’m happy I got it and would recommend one if you can swing it.

New to area.... any recommendations?

New to the area. I drive a larger cruiser (1400cc) but did not know if there was any areas to avoid. I do not plan on driving the interstate very much if at all. Is the town generally safe or are there a lot of accidents?
