just got back from 1st ride
« on: February 19, 2006, 01:15:08 PM »
holy balls!
I've been working real hard to get Linda all put together and ready to go for spring time and I figured that since its sunny and dry and no ice patches on the street, I'd brave the 18 degree temp and go for a quick spin around the block. it was awesome. I haven't ridden a bike in probably 10 years

just thought I'd share that. it'll probably be another few months before it warms up and they sweep all the salt and grit from the streets, but as soon as all that stuffs gone, I'm back on a bike again!

Just wait tillĀ  you get cut off by a car for the first time.Oh that feeling of the open road?


Just blowing off steam.I took my 380 out a being sick for a week and a half.Within 2 miles of leaving the house,i was cruising along doing 60 or so and some a**hole pulls right out in front of me.Gotta love it.

So...I'm just about to collect my new 1000cc bike and drive it through a HUGE unfamiliar city, then on for another 4 hours before I get the ferry, etc....
You've made my day girls...
I'm not f....n goin' now,
They can put it in a box and ship it. :-\

It hurts to admit when you've made mistakes, But when the're big enough, the pain only lasts a second
