And I will ride 900 miles...
 

...and hopefully 900 more :D

Yep, I think it's safe to say I have officially bonded with my little Yammy. Over 900 miles since the end of April. I've ridden it practically everyday bar 7 I think. When I hit a 1000 I'm going to treat myself to a new lid :cool:

Think I'm ready for the real thing yet? Anyone want to donate to the MYCOABB* Fund? :cheers:


*that's MYC on a Bigger Bike ;-)

EDIT: Perhaps this is a good time to ask if any of you fancy one of these doing...;-)

I'll donate 2p if you promise to get a Blackbird, and lend it to me every now and again :riding:

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

No, my conscience won't let me! The way you were giggling after the ride around Loch Leven you are a speed freak mentalist! :D



I couldn't possibly be party to such behaviour! :-$

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Lucky you just added that Pants, I was just going to type POT? KETTLE? BLACK?

:smt040

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Oi! I object to that.









I do not giggle!

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

But that is the best bit! :smt040

Yay MYC it's amazing how quickly the miles soon add up!

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Well done Maria.... you`ve done so well since passing your test. I think Chris should just lend you his bike for a short while and see if you like the bigger bike thing :smt077

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

He says I can if I can pick it up! I mean come on, it's not like it'll look worse if I drop it is it? :-D

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Yay, 900 miles is the way forwards. Every mile makes you a better biker and it increases the grin factor by a huge amount too. Actually, I have clocked up about that on my SV since passing my test, they really need to make bike seats more comfortable is the biggest thing I have learned so far! :smt061

Would love to help with the Bigger bike fund, but sadly I have to try to get a bike for the wife so she stops nicking mine! ;)

Happy riding and keep it going.

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

pmsl.... exactly, and there`ll always be someone around to pick it up for you should it accidentally be dropped :D

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

LOL he's not worried about it being dropped by the sound of it. More worried about you not being stranded. It's a good skill to have, not sure I could pick mine up by myself as it's a heavy beast. Would use that walking back technique shown on some videos if I had to pick my bike up on my own.

Lucky for me, folks came to the aid of an old duffer at the Green Welly.

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

LP, I meant to say pick it up off the stand lol. I don't think I'd want to try pick it up from a drop, it's heavier than a standard I think anyway!

I can pick my own little YBR up no problem now, I az got ze muskels innit hehe.

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

fairy nuff, can understand where you're coming from on that one :(

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Well done MYC!

Does this mean you are coming all that way down south on it now?

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

To Ipswich you mean Sally? Nah, found a cheap train ticket so don't need to put the YBR through a southern trip, I'm sure it'd break down just to demonstrate its protest against that part of the country :-D

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Well done Maria!! You're doing fantastic!=D>

I'm back now, so we'll have to see when we are both free for a ride. I've not been out on the bike much recently. I just don't like it any more.

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Awww Mel :( Though I hate to type it...go get yourself your beemer :-D And yes we need to go for riding bimble things :-D

Re: And I will ride 900 miles...
 

Oh well, never mind :). Breaking down a million miles from home is a PITA!

Keep on enjoying it though!
