MSF BasicRC just gives you thee basics, but then there E(expirienced)RC as well as advanced.
Following closely and keeping formation are just common sense/road skills. We gotta teach youngun's that just like its been taught to us.
My kid is like me. Likes the ratty old choppers, caferacers and club-style bikes. Keeps buggin' me for the keys to my Twinkie and loves the Shovelhead.

Ya know, I finally realize it really wasn't just the other day when I was 28, so I probably need a lifestyle change.
Thinkin' about gettin' a Honda or somethin', but I'm not too keen on what I should wear, except I know ya gotta have one of those big giant bubble head fullface helmets and big flourescent stripes on your jacket.
What am I missin'? I don't wanna look like a poser around those guys...
