Welcome to the world of 2 wheels and of course to KB. May the addiction reign supreme.
Is it just me or has there been an unseasonal jump in the number of noobie bikers popping up? I thought this wasn't supposed to happen until Spring.

Baby boomers influence man, how old are your kids ? When were you first reproducing ? when your nads where cold from riding ? think about it ?

DONT be so silly, give up before you start, it will stunt your growth! You will most probably find that like many of us on this site you will quickly become an addict!
So what else can I say but to welcome you to the mad mad world of bikers!

Thanks So Much For All The Welcomes & Such, Made Me Smile :p
So, Saturday - WOW What A Day!!
We Started Off With Getting Too Know Eachother, Introductions Etc..Then We All Gathered Around One Motorbike, Found Out About The Gears, Clutch Control, Straight Wrist For The Throttle Etc..
Well I Won't Bore You With The Specifics, I Just Wanna Add My Highlight Of The Course..Twas When We Were Riding Around The Car Park In First Gear, & The Andrew Let Us Go To Second And Third!!..Yay!! :woohoo:
I Could Feel The Difference Straight Away, So Much Smoother, I LOVED IT! I Especially Felt Great Doing 3rd Gear I Was Literally Smiling From Ear To Ear, Lynne Saw Me Grinning And Started Laughing, But I Couldn't Help It, I Thought It Was FANTASTIC!! :wari:
Andrew Said I Did REALLY Well And Was Very Impressed When I Told Him That Was My First Time Handling Something With Gears, Not Even A Manual Car!
Doing My Basic Handling Next Week - Can't Wait!
Sorry To Bore You With My Lengthy Recap, Just Had Too Share, Thanks!

I don't know if anyone has warned yet, but this motorcycling is very addictive. I tried it once, almost 38 years ago, thinking this'll do until I get a car. But, bugger me if I'm not still doing it.
Oh well, another one joins the ranks of the foolish. :devil2:

Shit no-one told me that! I'm going to try it. Welcome to bikes and the keep the riding tips coming.
A 40yr old I work with has also just got his 1st bike and is out currently riding round in the rain / mud with a big stupid grin on his face (practising for his skills test). Warms the cockles (wherever thay are...)
Have fun and stay safe.
