Do you need gears?
No, but he used to ride a pushbike and his older colleague told him he was really good at it so he'll be fine.

Didn't you have two accidents in a week? One in supermarket carpark?
Yes, I, a stationary object on both occasions, had an accident.
Don't quit the day job yet champ. You're still a long way off Rain Man.

Probably just go for A2 auto license, can't be bothered to get a 125 geared, get experience, do A2 geared/A, sell that off
500cc scooter will do me fine
Noticed my Sym Jet x 125 has adjustable rear suspension, how to check it's on suitable setting? I'm probably about 12 stone.

I had exactly the same thought earlier today... It's bloody killing me.

Good lord I think I’ll have to add another to ignore too…
“Is it possible I’m wrong/could learn something, or all these people taking the time to try and give me some help and advice?
No it’s definitely them and not me.”
Anywhooos, now I’m in an “office” job since December I’ve decided tomorrow will be my first commute in, I leave around 5:50 and it’s slowly getting some light by the time I’m at work and it was so sunny and warm when I left today…it’s going to rain tomorrow now isnt it!

I found my ear plugs. I had accidentally put them in my trouser pocket instead of the jacket. The pockets are torn on the inside and the container with the plugs descended in the trouser leg. Found them after checking the riding gear all over.
