Default Re: Your first experience of biking

Aged about 7 at my aunt's in Scarborough. A friend of hers was going fishing near Whitby, would I like to go with him? Transport was a girder forked, solid rear end Norton single, cue much wailing & gnashing of teeth by Mum & sisters!
Ride was steady away. Host had a game fishing licence and caught nothing. I didn't & caught a trout - never got invited again
12 years later got a 125 Lambretta, followed by 250 Maicoletta with moto cross engine, standard Maicoletta, 400 Maico Taifun, the rarest of rare bikes, Enfield Constellation, Vincent Rapide, BMW R69S SUZUKI SV650 Triumph Street Triple and, fired it up yesterday, another Maicoletta.
