Hi all

2 weeks ago I'd never ridden a bike.

On the 22nd March I did my cbt. Then Sunday - Tuesday had lessons and passed mod 1

Yesterday I passed mod 2

Today I have been out all day on my 09 Yamaha Fazer 600

What an experience. I've not got anywhere near the full performance. But have enjoyed my first full day so much!

So much mechanical feel compared to a car.

All the other bikers seem so friendly, all give you the nod as you go the other way!
Not sure why I'm writing this post, just thought I'd share my experience!

I'm based in Ashford, Middx. Anyone local?

Matt

Thanks all.. Will update this thread in time. As I progress.

Plans are to keep the bike for a year, then upgrade to something faster.

Thanks all

So since passing my test I've been out every weekend.

Racked up near 700 miles already.

Confidence has taken a big jump now also!
