Ok maybe not that bad!
I had never been on a road bike before I went to Wellington and had a ride on the back of a friends bike and got totally hooked! I came straight home sat my learners and brought a brand spanking new bike!
Just sat my restricted and now need some biker buddies, cuz i dont know anyone with a bike up here! I live in Auckland, Mt Eden and it would be great to find some other chicks to go riding with!

Good luck. Qkchk is a very good mentor up there too.
Double shot!!
Strongly suggest you don't hook up with rider buddies and group rides until you have the basics down - the internet is littered with their remains.
Get a paid mentor by the scruff of the neck, and demand to know "how do I steer and brake properly on this thing at speed" before you head off and cement all your bad habits in permanently.
The quicker the licensing system in NZ is changed to prevent this happening, the better.
Have fun on bikes, but be careful - all is not what it seems. Nice bike, btw.

"read what Steve says. He's right."
"What Steve said pretty much summed it up."
"I did axactly as you said and it worked...!!"
"Wow, Great advise there DB."

Heh welcome to the wicked world of bikes... I live in Karaka, so just a quick flick south, I learnt on the franklin roads, and have built up my confindence with my partner, a few small group rides, and some longer ones. There are plenty of great riders around, but I would avoid group rides until your at one with your bike & comfy with your abilities, never push yourself, even though you want too...Originally Posted by Chicky
good luck!

Well done there Chicky,

All the best and have heaps of fun.
