    Watch out for the noob on a scooter

    I'm a biker-to-be who is currently riding a dinky little Yahama Aprio around on a learner car license.

    (This is the bit where you mock me for being a giant dork)

    Most of the time when I'm not on a scooter I ride pillion on a DL650.

    I hope to get my restricted in the next couple of weeks, and after that go for my bike learners. In the meantime I'm just a wannabe.

    So hi, and stuff.

    You have to start somewhere, and you have a plan to move on, go to it.

    Welcome to the site. Plenty of useful pointers in these pages and plenty of people willing to pass on advice.

    Heh, thanks I've been on my learners for over a year already, up until now I just didn't see the point in getting my restricted as I was only using it for my scooter.

    But I figure it's time I stop being pathetic about it - a friend of mine went through merciless mocking after having to renew her learners after 10 years, and I could see myself heading in the same direction.

    Hi. I started on a scooter (travel to work - cheaper than cage, cheaper AND less obnoxious than bus) and have found myself ... kinda ... creeping ... upwards. As it were.

    Beware of scooters! They're a gateway drug to motorcycles!

    Welcome

    Clearly I am not up to his standards. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

    That's assuming I'm a lady I'm decidedly unladylike.

    Why am I thinking of a red and black billboard?

    Or are you trying to tell us the reputation is undeserved?
