    Its easy though can be embarrassing if it becomes public.My one wheeled effort the length of Waitaki bridge resulted in a "oldest teenager in town" comment from the judge,loss of licence i lived with with little complaint,the reminders of said comment from mates still has given me more grief.

    Motorcycle Skills Improvements Resolutions

    Improve my overall slow speed handling of the bike whilst two up. Still making a hash of this aspect too often. Still getting the hang of the rear brake/clutch control method of our 560kg plus beastie(when two up) when undertaking the slow stuff.

    Other for me means (a) overall roadcraft (have sent my details off to IAM NZ - may be a long wait, I understand) and (b) getting to be happier on loose surfaces.
