Well....I thought it was about time I said hi
Went out for my first ride on Sat ....me a total newbie.....was absolutely crappin myself....but also very excited....but also crappin myself.
Had tried on several occassions to wiggle out of going....but a certain someone was not having a bar of it.....fuckety fuck I had to go. Ohhh and boy did he push me....something that I NEVER will be able to thank him enough for!
Don't ask me where we went...Clevedon? then onto somewhere, around some bays (yes navigation v. bad), I remember some twisties that eventually forced me to talk myself..."look tina look" "you stupid b-arch LOOK" .....now I am doing it when I drive...the looking, not the verbal abuse.
We came out onto the bombays....and my confidence, by then was way better than where I started. Twas getting dark and made my home, had not even really thought about my driveway, which is pretty much this /...anyway, I gear down to what I thought was 1st and turn right into my drive....well...about halfway up I loose all revs cos I am not in 1st big
Ended up havin to drop the bike...well not really drop...more like lay down gently
To cut a long story short I now have to move.....JOKING....needless to say...I know what I did wrong and I know I have to practice hill starts etc.....but confidence has taken a little battering and tomorrow I have to go down this a#*hole of a driveway.
To stop me going ass-over-kite...cos that's what's going on in my head...any suggestions/tips/advice would be GREATLY appreciated
