Only me

[GrannySmiff]

Hi all,

I am new to the world of bikes I passed my test this week and now own a 2003 R6 in silver, its been a couple of months since I booked my test and lessons due to popular demand of people trying to get through before new test.

So for that time since I knew I was finally taking the plunge all I have been thinking about is bikes and have spent alot of time reading and researching about them, and I am now glad to have my very own bike and can ride it when I choose.

Now I am just learning to care for her as well as ride her.

Thanks James.

Congratulations mate,

Yes dedication is what you need as the faffing time for any given journey has increased considerably, however I now travell with a smile rather than a frown. So all seems worthwile just a shame I am starting at the end of the season all though I do intend on using the bike all year round only using the car to avoid the really bas stuff and am very scared about nasty mr gritter and his extraordinary abilitty to rot my shinny bike.

welcome & congrats James

watch out for wet leaves, gravel, mud & painted road surfaces more importantly - or corrosion won't be an issue
