    Updated profile.

    I just went out on my first ride. Unfortunatly my biker mate bailed on me because he had sports training. So i took it slow to start.
    Cruised around a couple of quiet roads and then proceeded onto Bucklands Beach Road (scary stuff )
    Visited a couple of friends to show off my pimp as ride, probably rode about 10-15 kms just around the bucklands beach peninsula.

    Light started to fade so i packed it in for the day. (not before attempting and succeding in doing a standstill on my back lawn)

    Stalls : 3
    Misjudged corners : 2
    Times i left indicator on : ~

    Couple of times i looked in the wrong area, like coming round a corner and looking at the curb, then coming within 15 cm of curb and freaking out. But im learning quickly.
    Overall a succesful first ride i think.

    Don't beat up on yourself too much. You gotta start somewhere and starting with stalls and misjudging corners (without binning) is ok. More time riding = more experience. Don't forget to use the resources available with KB mentors (as well as your mate)
