After 3 months of no riding, due to damage to my hands and the small fact of dropping both my bikes, yesterday was my first day back on the seat.

The first day was rather strange, no getting over, no high speed filtering. Just plodding along, like I'd just passed my test.

Hopefully by the time it starts warming up I'll be back scrapping my toes around the bends Laughing

So if anyone comes up behind a red Y reg Bandit going slow, bear with me and pull in when I can.

Its good to get back on the horse as soon as possible. Dont worry if you feel like taking it slow to begin with, it's not all about getting tonnes-up on your rear wheel! Ride your own ride...

I really am still plodding along like I just passed my test... mainly because I've only just saved up enough money since my DAS to be able to buy my 1st bike.

Even so, I'd stick with zulu's advice - "ride your own ride".
Rebuild your confidence gradually, and you should be back to your "normal" riding by the summer Wink
