when I picked up my very first brand new bike (HD Sportster) many years ago. I told the guy (this was when harley shops weren't boutiques) it had been awhile since I rode, was there somewhere I could practice a little. He said sure go dow that road in the back and when you get back here you'll be ready to go.
I turned onto the road, 1/2 block later it turned into all sand, turned around in that crap and went back to cuss him out. when I got there he looked at me and said well you kept it up in that crap you're ready to go.
lesson learned, just drive through it. i used to go out in the rain as a teen and intentionally slide around to get used to it.
