    Back on the road

    Got a limited licence. Cost well under $1000, Was screwed around by the cops and courts (surprise surprise!), But didnt let off and finished the job!
    They love making it hard for you, but if you stick to it, your sweet. Dont let them win.
    So im back on the road!
    And what a day to be riding! Slippery roads, stupid cars trying to kill me, and plenty of falling water. I LOVE IT!

    Well done matey!
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Isn't it such a shame that your normal trip to work, completely without any embellishment, contains a wonderful section of road for performing completely legal acts while still obtaining suitably satisfactory pleasure from an overpowered sportsbike.
