I'm on a right high buzzz...

[Fallen Angel]

.....I feel like I could touch the sky!

I'm just back from being on a nice long run today and I'm still buzzing from it!!!

I was overtaking, filtering, nodding to other bikers, red-lining the bike and generally just having a sooper dooper, fantastic, really enjoyable ride!!! I was managing to take some corners at about 50mph (where just last week I was taking the same ones at about 25mph ) and I was getting down quite low when taking them. Getting down really low is quite a natural thing isn't it!!! I did wish I had a bit more power behind my ass mind you when overtaking a few people, but I guess I'll just have to wait until I get a bigger bike for that extra power!!!

The heavens opened when I was only 15 minutes out of the door mind you, but that just gave me an excuse to stop at the local biker's pub for a pint and I really did feel like a biker!! I was nervous when I was leaving the pub though, 'cause the road's right at the front of the beer garden bitty where all the REAL BIKERS sit!!!! I was scared I was going to stall or something, but I didn't and I was really chuffed with myself, grinning the whole way up the road!!

I now feel like going back out again - I love being on a bike, it's the most wonderful feeling ever!!!!!!

As if I hadn't written enough above, I've just remembered I didn't share my police part of the story.

Here I am doing about 70mph in a 50 (on the express-way) when I peek in my mirrors and the coppers are behind me flashing there lights and their blue lights were on F*CK I thought, I'm for it!!!! There's no hard shoulder on the express way and I was in the outside lane and there's loads of traffic on the inside lane, so I indicate right and slow right down nearly to a halt, thinking to myself sh*t, sh*t, sh*t!!!! And they drive on past me - phewwwww!!!! That was a close one!!!

[karen_moomin]

You go girl!!

/me thinks I need to go out on a ride with you, your rides sound like so much fun!!

[ProXimaCore]

Wow, sounds like you've got the hang of it no problem. Good on you! Sound very confident indeed. Weather is pretty good over this part of the country. Glasgow end usually rains I've noticed. Good to see you've got some decent weather for it too.

Sounds like I'll have to try keeping up with you then when we all meet up.

All good with the fun and stuff. But dont let it go to your head.

You are right about redlining and stuff. Lol, I "killed" my bike today. It's all about the red stuff.

The Carbeth Inn - it's on the road out to Drymen!! If you go over the express-way and come off at Anniesland, just go straight up Crow Road heading for Bearsden, then at the big roundabout just past Canniesburn Hospital, take a left and then follow the signs for Dryme, it's on the left hand side of the road about 7 or 8 miles from Bearsden!!!

Me and my other half go up there for an hour or so most Sunday evenings, so if you fancy it let us know and we can meet you roundabout Anniesland way!!
