Posted: 10:40 - 22 Apr 2015 Post subject: First ride out last Saturday since CBT |
|
|
Just wanted to say a big thanks to the community here for all the postings old and new (especially ScardeyCat, I literally went through all 3 years of your posts reading up on your experience!)
They have been a massive help in getting me this far. cheers
I took my first ride out on my newly delivered 2013 Yamaha YBR125 early on Saturday morning since it would be quiet out and not many cars around. By chance I was either cacking my pants or too excited so barely slept Friday night and was up at sunrise getting ready!
Drove round and round the streets around my house and gradually felt more confident so started to go further afield.
After 3-4 hours of this (with sugar filled cups of tea in between) I embarked on a 50 mile round trip from Brighton up to Hurstpierpoint, across through Hassocks, down to Lewes and then Newhaven taking as many country roads as possible! So much fun! Back home on the A259 to Brighton. No mishaps at all fortunately although a couple of things I need to work on like not riding too close to the car in front and my starting off is not perfect every time yet. Still much learning to do.
cheers,
Simon.

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 9 years, 27 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
