    good to hear, I think if you see them at the time, that is when it is important, not 10 min later (when its too late)... but I guess you would not pass the test if you crapped out so to speak... 80% interesting... will work on my observation for October! Thanks

    Awesome, tell us all about it... did you miss any dangerous objects, or cars coming at you, I heard that is part of what is required for full?

    You'll be mint az, miss. Only one thing to remember, is how much of a milestone this will be for you, and that you will look back on it forever, so make sure you enjoy it on the day. Think that warm fuzzy feeling you are going to get once you pass it!

    It will be all good, you will 'pass,' think only on the positive side sleep well the night before.

    Ya poor thing I recommend you have a bit more today to make sure you got enough fluids yesterday evening.
    Your bike should not suffer from such ailments as wetness in leads etc , have the mec an ic check it thoroughly next service.Carry that can everywhere form now on though aye.
    That way you'll never need another one again! .
    Hope you are recovered.

    We went the other way Dawn, and OMG it was freaky, never got down to 3rd without giving way before nasty corners... can't wait to have you come out again... FUN!!!

    Sounds like you had a good ride.

    If you ever want another slow poke rider along, send me a message...

    I did a ride on Friday after work, to take the longer way home, started in the city, went over the shore, Albany, Coatsville, Riverhead and then home in to Henderson.

    Not a long ride, but still nice.

    Keep safe

    Most triumphant exultation and fanfare! Always good to hear of riders doing the biking thang and shaking their patooty out to the country!
