Blues riffs and Solos

Hi I wondered if anyone got some good blues riffs to play on a C harmonica? It would also be awsome if someone could post some solos!
I would prefer not too much bending since i'm not so comfortable with that yet.

A good start Papa is to just learn the blues scale without the bends:
2D 3D 4B 4D 5D 6B - 6B 5D 4D 4B 3D 2D
Then you can start mixing things up and down as you go along!
Another easy favorite:
2D 4B 3D 2D over and over again.
This and variations on it are all over the place in music, and JP offers suggestions on the rythym of it as well in his lessons.
Once you get this pattern down, and start playing around with it, you'll amaze yourself guaranteed!!
Keep on harpin'!
