... and I didn't fall of today!

did quite a bit of practice today, Great weather here in wellington today, and even better I didn't have to work:rockon:

Practiced slow riding today, standing starts and the normal every day things , wrist position, Head position and remembering to turn those darn indicators off.

Its amazing how slow you can go when you relax, trust the bike to do its thing and feather the clutch, was almost stationary at times:scooter:
stalled it once, but other wise it went well!

clutch and throttle work have improved able to take off preeettty smoothly now and it don't matter if its a quick take of or a slow one, able to take my foot off the ground as soon as the throttle goes positive force or whatever you call it...lol...Sweeet makes me feel like I look good taking off at the light now...hahaha.:msn-wink:

Did a few ks on the road, round the bends and up hills making sure my heads up and I'm looking thru the corner.

I'm having so much fun I don't know why I didn't do it years ago. :Punk:

On ya! :Punk: Sounds like yer having a blast and thinking about the way to ride safely! Keep it up and never stop thinking about what you could have done better/consider the things you did right and keep doing it!

So, when are you going to do her first 200km+ long trip!? :yes:
