    What a day.

    Well at lunch time today i finally went and got my learners after waiting nearly a year after sitting my BHS test. Straight after that i went into underwood and wilkins and ordered a new hyosung GT250S so fingers crossed i might be able to get my bike before the weekend so i can finally start riding.

    Nice bike, nice in black if you got that colour, yes it can be tiring, alot more concentration needed than driving a car, though you will find you get bike fit, it will come more naturally and easily to always be watchful. Slap yourself round the cheeks on days you feel not quiet 100 percent when your riding, or slow yourself down, until you get in the groove.

    yes got it in black and gave it its first wax tonight. my mind wasn't getting tired i was to excited for that to happen. I was meaning tiring on my body as i got sore shoulders and forearms. I was thinking that i will get used to riding and my body will adjust to the forces it faces while out on the road.

    You'll get used to it pretty quick. Riding a bike is heaps more physical than driving a cage. I'm quite lucky, I'm also a keen cyclist so the riding position of my bike is a little bit similar and the fitness was there.

    Have fun - keep safe.
