Another super wet ride today. Sun shone all morning , 20 minutes before I'm due to take off the heavens opened. I didn't care.

Went over to Mot, hehe. I am a very naughty learner. I really struggle with staying under 70K, the bike just screams to be set free. Sounds bloody awful until you hit 90 and from then on it's just purring.

How am I going to stay legal?

And, how do I stop the fog in my helmet, I'm so excited and the heavy breathing and yeehaaaing is causing fog!

That's two days riding both in the wet, what a good way to test oneself and understand how the bike handles, we were made for one another...I'm in love!!!


To all you - been riding for years people - I so get it!!!!

For years I'd see people riding in the rain and think "Poor buggars", now it's just yeeha who gives a fuck it's riding time.

I titled this thread...Let the fun begin. It has. I am having so much fun.
I'm a much better mother (I'm so so happy) and I have been doing the big jobs around the house and my reward....a ride on the little black beast.
Genie loves to ride....Genie was born to ride!!!!!

Fun is really fun....went around the block today and killed more bugs. Geez those ones that smack into your legs kinda 'ouch'. the bouncing off the visor is funny. Had to dodge a couple of birds, they fly close to the wind!

Super sunny day, opened up the air vent thingy's on my jacket, hehehe, that tickled.

Nelson has gorgeous roads to ride, the scenery and the smells, not all polluted and smoggy.

And some nice friendly bikers out there, I'm not up to waving back, holding on for now. The waves are kinda cool, there are a lot of bikes on the road that I'd not noticed before, odd!!! Bad.
Riding a bike is way more than fun, it's exercise for my mind, my body and my soul.

I'm going to get up real early and go ride my bike.
