An experienced rider developes an almost natural instinct to ride and survive.This is something a new rider doesn't have and will only understand later.They think they're good but they're not.

I would agree with the prior poster, but add as a caveat that the most dangerous rider on the road is going to be someone who's been riding from 6 months to 2 years. Before that, one will be naturally cautious, but during that time period a rider thinks he knows all there is about riding and has yet to learn otherwise.

Skilled Rider: been riding long enough to get skills.
New Rider: No skills.
Me: not killed yet.

I read in a cycle magazine you shouldn't ride 2 up until you have 5000 miles under you, I would assume that they think that is a starting point to say you are experienced. What you see in your field of vision is what makes you good/experienced. It's raining, but has it rained 3 days straight or just start so that middle between the wheel tracks is oil slick like ice. Do I look far enough ahead to see if the vanishing point on that next curve is getting closer which means it's going to tighten up and I have to back off accordingly? those type questions need answering before you can say you are good/experienced. Ride safe.

Skilled Rider
- know what he is doing better
- know how to reaction better in dangerous situation
- able to predict better
New Rider (need no introduction)
- opposite from all the above.
- ego tend to be higher and most of the time not thinking of the consequences.

Experience. Enough sense to know what you can and can't do with a bike.
Firecracker, you have the guts to admit you still have some stuff to learn. You don't hear it very often.

"New" and "skilled" are apples and oranges. A new rider can be skilled.
