Idle Banter For non SV and non bike related chat (and the odd bit of humour - but if any post isn't suitable it'll get deleted real quick). There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too. |

Re: I have been riding my SV again
Quote:
I was always sure I didn't want to stop riding but I occasionally wondered how I might react: I have caught myself exhibiting some nerves and extra cautiousness in certain road situations. Probably subconsciously not wanting to come off and hurt myself again - I definitely don't have the bravado of youth anymore!  Hopefully time and practice will overcome that issue, allow me to relax a bit more and rebuild some greater trust in tyres, brakes and my own riding skills (such as they were).
