    Young ish and a girl!
    What's the point in living if you don't feel alive?

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

    Lol. Haven't taken up any offers on here yet. Cool to know so many are there for group rides. I'm slowly learning the skills... slowly. I stalled it doing a u-turn up a hill yesterday.. you gotta wonder why I even tried that.

    How's the learning going for you?

    The only way you are going to learn, is by doing it. We all stalled on hills when we first started, and even people who have been riding for years, can stall on a hill. You only fail when you give up trying.
    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    Too true, my friend. I'm really glad of the fact that it's the first time I've stalled it in about a month. Last time was also doing a u-turn.. but I'll keep trying until I get them, after all.. each attempt is better than the last.

    What you doing today? The weather is too good to be inside.

    Wana come to a carpark with me? I need to practice some stuff too.

    I can come ride over to you if you want. The Samsung carpark is big, empty and locked off..

    Thanks for the ride and the tips, me and Jeremy both had fun and learnt a bunch. We should go on a real ride some time when Jeremy gets his "cute 125" going and me and him get licensed.

    Thats the spirit, you will look back on these days in the future and wonder what you were worrying about.

    Heaps of us riders on the shore, they seem to have gone into hiding for some reason though.

    should go for a ride sometime if I'm not too old!
    Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.
