Back to Biking after 17 yrs
- Thread starter whyscotty
- Start date
Will do and thanks
Looks nice that mate. Nice getting a new bike, like you said can't sleep the night before
I don't live far away from you if you live in Wigan (I'm in Widnes), so can go out for a ride sometime if you fancy it.
That would be good as long as you don't mind going slow and steady.
Was very nervous for the 1st hr or so but confidence started to return towards the end.
Put the wrong jacket on for the weather ( almost froze) but hey - I'm riding again.
Anyway bike put to bed for the night
Damn that's a nice garage
Room for at least 3 bikes in there
Cheers and there's an idea
Unfortunately the wife saw your post and I'm getting some funny looks.

Yes, next to the rear wheel.
More miles under my belt, really wish I hadn't waited so long before getting a bike again.
Took the bike down some nice twisty roads around Parbold.
Really need to reign myself in, was at times getting carried away
Took it on the Motorway to see what was a comfy cruising speed - 70/75 looks to be it.
Anything over felt too much, so all in all not a bad morning.
Lunch and then back out again - not a bad life.

More miles under my belt, thoroughly enjoy every minute of it -- so glad for the heated grips today
Another 3hr assessment ride booked for next Saturday to see how I'm doing.
Is it wrong to be looking at other bikes already?

The wife wants to come out with me, as the CB1 isn't really suitable I've been looking.
Not sure which way to go really, or even if I should be considering carrying a pillion so soon after returning to riding.
Did another 3hr back to biking yesterday, they seemed to be more than happy -- reigns off now.
The was one incident were someone tried to force their car among us - when there wasn't room.
Funny as ...., as the instructor is 6-4 around 20st - didn't half rip into the driver.

Price depends on how big you want your shed.
