Two wheel bliss
Hi the name's Anthony, finally got my license and first bike in April. Being an only child my mom didn't really approve, so i bought quality protective gear from head to toe (cheers Cycletreads!) and after lots of reassurance and telling her all the money i would save on petrol, she's still worried. But who's mom isn't.
I picked up a '90 GPX250
, at a steal, not a very good looker but mechanically sound (my practical brain finally made a decision) a great first bike. A good friend of mine is mechanically minded and helped through the buying process.
Loving every minute of riding, like a kid with a new toy, but i don't thnk i'll be bored in a month and find something else to keep me amused.
Commuting to Ardmore, from the North Shore, where i'm training to become a helicopter instructor, taking the back roads after the harbour bridge, of course, so not to exceed my 70kmph maximum speed.
Slowly but surely improving my riding skills, signed up for the upcoming BRONZ course too (all thanks to this forum and justsomeguy).
The next bike i'd like to purchase is a 600, and the choice is going to be difficult when the time comes, there's so many great bikes to choose from!
Who ever has read this far thank you.
Anyone interested in helicopter tours, heli-fishing etc (anything you can think of a helo can do) don't hesitate to send a PM or email and i'll see what i can do. Its not cheap but it's well worth it.
