What a day!

[chieftain]

The sun is shining...

After three months of searching, I have found leather trousers that fit me (5' 3'' short lady!) and they're quite trendy!

I sat on a hornet at the honda dealership and I can get my feet down, whoop whoop! Decision made!

My test is booked for beginning of June and until then I'm enjoying the sunshine on my lickle CG125...



does life get much better?

Sorry for the random post, but I'm grinning like an idiot and no-one else gets it!!!

taking the scenic route home and just going where you want without having to fight with the traffic jams on the way to the coast and such!!!

Nah, I get it. Its an awesome feeling even before you get the license/bike. It gets better when you get it too

I can only imagine that I am going to be happier than a kid in a sweetshop when I have passed and got my first big bike as well

Yep, bet it's gonna be great (as long as I pass, fingers crossed!) esp because other half suggested I should trade in big silly car for cheap little car and nice bike!!

So I can stop looking for budget bargains and get a nice shiny one!

Good luck with the theory test, I have no idea how I passed the hazard perception section, still don't get it. Just luck I think?

Today was first day I have ridden in leathers this year, and left the textiles at home. Felt that was a great excuse to leave the Bandit at home, and bring the Gixxer in to work today!

Loved every minute of it - and am leaving at 16:00 on the dot tonight to miss most of the traffic. Can see my normal motorway journey turning into a longer more twisty route hime!

Just got off the beastie, after a gloriously sunny run up to Birmingham. Sadly, had to be the motorways for time reasons, but plenty of rolling chicanes to play with.
By crikey, full black leathers get a bit 'ot when you're stopped

[chieftain]

I'm off out in a bit to try my new leather trousers on the bike...

shhh, don't tell the people in the offices, but I just love this 'working at home' malarky, it's great when the sun's out!

Yeah that is what surprised me most about the leathers, just how quickly you get hot once you stop

I think I'll be knocking off work early today too. Time to give the Draggin's an airing I think, was roasting on Monday in cordura.
