Thank you Insanity_rules, it was a pleasure, and on that note:Originally Posted by Insanity_rules
Following the tragic loss of our Uncle Bruce, I decided to open up the BuckBuckNo1 Newbie Training Update and get it moving as an inter-active thread whereby contributors to the ‘Where Did You Ride and What Did You Practise?’ could participate.
Each week we have had the ‘legacy’ passed on - two people as selectors each chose a post in the thread and this was copied across to the Newbie Update. In addition, I as the facilitator would include other entries in the Newbie Update, my progress and any topical riding matters.
It is now time for me to move on, because in the spirit of the original concept to honour Uncle B, I think that it is fitting and appropriate for one of more newbies to work together each week and maintain the Newbie Training Update. Uncle Bruce found great pleasure in his mentoring role and I believe that we can all benefit in this kiwibiker community by maintaining his legacy – the pleasure of mentoring.
My observations are such that I am confident that there are ‘newbie’ riders out there, some which had the pleasure and honour of knowing and benefiting from our late Mentor Uncle B. And of course there are riders newbie riders that whilst they had not met Uncle B, they nevertheless have some of those fine inner qualities of discipline and respect in the new found joy of motorcycle riding.
I would welcome Personal Messages PM from people that may want to pick up the lantern and carry on the legacy – that of continuous learning and improvement in motorcycle riding.
[I ask that you provide a heartfelt expression of interest and encapsulate in 50 words or less the qualities you would like to see in a safe motorcycle rider.]
In the meantime I will periodically keep you up-to-date with my riding progress.
Heads Up and Enjoy
