I had him binned for ages then took him out because I couldn't remember why. Getting old has it's downside.
Hello Seem to have started a bit of a conversation here. Good to see so many helpful people out there. Thought I'd update you on progress today. I've been out all day on that screaming 125. As you all suggested, before the junction I dropped a gear, let the clutch out and if I was to fast, dropped one again. As the day wore on and I got colder and wetter, it all started to come together and eventually got to the stage of opening the throttle a little bit and slipping the clutch. I feel more confident about it now. Just have to get those U-Turns mastered. Away to soak in a hot bath to thaw out. Thanks again for all your help Big Dave Scotland The big is nothing to do with my height or waistline (snigger)
Big Dov wrote Do be careful, it will be quite some time before the rise in your abilities catches up with the rise in your confidence. On the bright side, the next few months will be among the most exciting part of your time on a bike. Empty car park, 20 minutes. As easy as that.
She might get worried that you'll abuse her pristine 9R. You don't appreciate how much care she lavishes on that bike.
Hook, Line, Sinker and this weeks copy of Angling Times! Gods Teeth, Bear, you are predictable aren't you? If you can't take it, don't dish it out. Lighten up man! Riding a motorbike is good for that - you ought to try it sometime... <no sig sep as usual> Dave
