Yes, but then you've changed the title of your thread.

A bike is something you pedal. I got my first bike at 10. I fell off almost immediately. Then I got training wheels.

the day i passed me part two test on a kawasaki ar80!!!, flyin home at a killer 55mph, straight into the back of a mercedes, full swan dive over the car, flat out on road in front of the car, not so much as a scratch, bike written off, £300 to respray merc boot due to a tiny scratch off the zip on my leather jacket!!.
painful experience financially, but touch wood never come off since, get it out the way early I say
