First ride out in two years
Discussion
OOoooohh, I've missed that!!
Due to recurrant babies, I haven't been out on the bike for TWO YEARS. That actually shocks me, that it sat in the garage for such a long time (then I remember a friends wife, who passed her test, he bought her a 500cc bike, she rode it once and it sat for 5 years before he sold it to finance a new bike of his own - some people are born pillions)
ANYWAY..
Well chuffed that it ran like a beauty, and although my riding was a bit raggy for the first half a mile, it all came back. I hadn't FORGOTTEN how much fun it is, but I had maybe forgotten. Come back buzzing and with a big smile. Can't wait for the next time

I just have to make time for it. By the time the kids are in bed, it just seems like too much hassle, but really it isn't.
If I just get on with it I can get into the leathers, bike unlocked and ready to go in 15 minutes. That is plenty of time to go for an hour's blast, lock up again, changed and back on the sofa for 9.30pm. I just need to stop faffing about!!
