Well, returning to biking (after a 14 year layoff) if not to the UK.

Passed my full in the UK back in 1982 when you just had to ride around the block a couple of times.

Heaven knows how, but I survived my lack of CBT and multiple tests, and over the last 30-something years I've made my way from NVT Easy Rider moped, through a Tiger Cub, a few Kawasakis, Yamahas and MZs to the point where I'm just about to take a punt a KTM Duke 390.

The prospect of the KTM has me as excited as I was when I started in '79. And that helps me feel a lot better about the intervening 34 years.
