Pretty good advice from a rookie, there Alan!!
Apart from the basic skills of throttle, clutch and brakes, the LOOK where you WANT to go might be the most important thing to learn (and practice) for bike riding. The reverse of that is "target fixation" which is do NOT look at the thing you are trying to avoid.....because you will hit what you are looking at.
