You might remember the post I done about having difficulty with cornering and how with the help of the org I stopped having the problems, well yesterday I took my girlfriend for a ride, took the bike over the car park again (this place is becoming like my second home) she got on and I walked the bike about 20ft then just drove normal, out of the car park and on the roads, she loved it she's not been on the back of a bike for 29 years, the only thing was I thought she was going to fall off when I accelerated hard, to me she felt like she was leaning right back but she said she wasn't so I'll know next time. Went to a couple of pubs where my mates drink (no we didn't drink) a couple of them said I'm crazy at my age to get a bike I'm 55 and some others didn't believe I had a bike unless i showed them it to them, yea I know tormenting me, had a couple of cars try to burn me off but I just ignored them as I knew they would have no chance if I opened her up, it was a nice morning out. Also where I live there are a lot of moderately twisty roads not to tight, so it gives me a chance to run the tyres in and all This started when the org helped me with advice on cornering, thanks ever one.
