Your biking career...
SO, Soulkiss's thread about his "bikeday" got me thinking
How long have you all been riding? Vote now in the poll
Also... What have you accomplished in that time? How many bikes have you owned? How many times have you fallen off? What do you still want to do?
Me? Passed on May 10th 2007, bought the SV, decided i had to buy a DRZ when i borrowed one as a courtesy bike 600 miles later then after riding a mate's KTM bought one of them
Dropped the SV on my driveway the evening before i was leaving at 4am to ride to lands end and back in 48hrs... Fell off the DRZ when i looked left, joining the road at an acute angle, looked back to realise the taxi in front was more stationary than i first imagined and grabbed a handful... Dropped the KTM on friday coming out of a hairpin on the track in 1st when i thought i was in 2nd
2 supermoto trackdays, where i learned to wheelie, change gear while doing so, stoppie and get the back end of the bike to slide nicely, plans for NW4 and a eurotour next summer, one puncture, countless new friends and acquaintences.
Still want to go off-roading and find a supermoto track with proper jumps, do something like the LWR/LWD trips, and own a litrebike for the absurdity of having so much power
