5, Marry my one true love.

I am only young (mid thirties) so have plenty of time really, so I can make sure that I get it right when I do it.

As for my bike test, this is proving difficult. Carol thinks that I need to work my skills on a 125 for a little while because I lost my confidence when I had my accident. So we went and had a look at a friends 125 that I could have used if we could fix it. It was a rusting wreck, non runner with so much wrong and all due to neglect. So we are are back where we started. I have a gorgeous SV I can't ride and a wild urge to get out there and play.

Is it really so wrong to ride a big bike with no insurance, license or skill? :(

I just want to play and ride my bike...
I also need a job so I can pay for more lessons, pay for a 125 and pay for insurance. Anyone know of any jobs going?

In this case they are wrong - probably one of the best bikes I have ever had the pleasure of riding. Having said that, 2 weeks later I rode a Honda NR750 and was very disappointed; it didn't feel much different to the VFR750FK I'd owned until 6 months prior to taking the RC30 out.

Re: Things to do before you die?
