Bad timing eh?
Soooo, as I'm going to have a new bike tomorrow I was thinking that I'll need to learn how to ride all over again.... SASS yo! Weather looks a bit shit though for tomorrow

Your beliefs don't make you a better person, your behaviour does.
Thanks Sis, yeah, I've been a stranger over the last year haven't I. I'm definitely keen to get back into SASS but I'm just not keen if it's raining. Crossing my fingers for next week
As for my new ride, I got it yesterday and I had to ride it home in the pouring rain on Anzac-eve traffic from the city. I did not enjoy it. Man, I'd forgotten how painful riding a sportsbike is. Here's a pic, kudos to anyone who can guess the model
I was thinking that after riding Howard's ZX, it was going to be the next bike

Your beliefs don't make you a better person, your behaviour does.
Good guess both of you, you're correct. Ever since Howard let me ride his zx all those months (years?) ago I've been pining for one of my own.
Took it for a run today to Thames and back..... wow. I still haven't taken it over half revs
It's annoying how amateurish I feel riding it. Really need to get back to SASS to my skills up with it. Can't wait to see you all again.
Hey y'all, let's see some faces and bikes there on Wednesday, aye?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your beliefs don't make you a better person, your behaviour does.

Spokes, ya gonna be here Wed night with yer new ride?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Awesome! Looks like we have 6 now, including myself, Sis, Spokes, and the three wise men mentioned afore...
