Default Re: Nostalgic biking thoughts

So many first memories.

But the first bike I ever rode for myself was an Hardly Driveable Dyna wotsit rider. Over 1200cc, something like 1340 I think
Seeing as it was all clutch and brake control (with the lack of back brake I may add) it was the perfect motosickle to ride in a straight line lol.
My mate Alex said if I got it off the sidestand I could take it for a ride....so...I did

Theres so many other early memories, like falling into the garden two doors down, upside down on my Honda Rebelwithoutaclue 125, my first ride on the SV, the longest ride ever to pick up my second SV, killing bambi on it three weeks later at AR07, and a month after riding to Les Noulliers with a bent fork(which wasn't known at the time). The V Raptor, wow, riding it up and down an airstrip with a Lancaster bomber on it, and parking under its wings.....6 months pregnant.

I love my bikes. ahhhhhh

First proper on a bike moment was belting about woods on the back of my little cousins MX bike main thing I remember was him laughing and me fearing for my life as all the branches smacked me about!!! I must have been about 9 or ten at the time...

Second proper on a bike moment is me on the back of my uncles CBR1000 (the couch) unfortunately it was my little cousin who was riding it. I'd been given all the different instructions about being a pillion and away we went, it was brilliant for the first 10 miles then there was that tap on the leg that meant he was going to give it a bit of go, next thing I remember is my arms round him and there being lots of blue sky as he wheelied this big tourer down the road laughing with me fearing for my life... To be honest it was a smooth wheelie and well controlled, thank god he's a better rider than me...
