    Try to Long Bay and back. Ive found its good roads to learn on with all the problems we need to overcome- hills, crossing traffic, lights, motorway, tight ass round a bouts.
    and the end destination is pretty good. Just don't get sun stroke, cause that makes it kind of hard to get home.
    What's the point in living if you don't feel alive?

    Toying with ones mortality shouldn't be this much fun.

    I WISH! I may only be here for another 3 days, but I think they may notice if I dissapeared. Though you can tell how busy I am by the fact I keep refreshing KB pages waiting for people to post!!

    Its the slow stop start riding that I have problems with. Oh and the going over 80km lol!
    I'm still too scared to ride in rush hour. I'm also paranoid about slow stop start riding on hills. I've been practicing hill starts in our neighborhood, but then the people that live around the area all stare out their windows and wonder if i'm having bike issues

    I was doing that but my bike is so loud that some guy came out and yelled at me and my friend who was teaching me. I zoomed off cause he was really edging for a fight.

    Rush hour was fucking scary! I ended up putting her in neutral and waddling forward! She stalls at 2,500-3,000revs
