How can I (re)learn driving stick?, It's been ~10 years since I last tried... Options

[CAMAricer]

Okay, so with all the crap that's been going on with my car, I've decided to purchase a second car (as a backup). But my options are rather limited b/c I can only drive an auto (I learned 10 years ago all in one afternoon at an empty parking lot but never touched it since). So...what is the best way to re-learn it? Keep in mind I have no one to teach me (don't know anyone in San Francisco who knows how to).

So any advice for me? Or any NorCal 6GC-ers willing to spare me an afternoon (or two) and their car to teach me? I'll compensate you for your time.

BTW, my next purchase is going to be an AE86. I figure if I'm going to learn how to drive stick, might as well learn how to drift too

Just have confidence bro, I'm assuming you already know the "concept" of driving manual, so yes, it will be like riding a bike like one of the member said before, i'm sure it'll be like second nature to you once you actually start driving, you'll just need some practice runs to get it smooth, but i'm sure you'll be fine just making it home, just take your time with it--no rush on the streets.
I say drive in the city/streets rather than highway because it'll force you to use your clutch more which hand in hand, will gain you the feel the clutch sooner. Plus, fear usually makes people act well if you know what i mean. Anyhow, take your time, and bring it home and just drive up and down your street or something, and be like me when I still had my beginners' license and took out my "saturn" at the time--and learned how to drive stick late at night.
GL to you bro!
