.......... and it was awful.
I did this over the last few days http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=117866 and decided to bite the bullet and get over my fear of riding again, so at 10.30 I rang the locak garage and booked Zuky in for her 1st MOT, booked in for 2.30pm. I went to my Mums house which is no more than 500yds away, 2 corners and a straight road. I got on and had a mind block, couldn't even remember the gears ![]() I never got to ride it to the MOT station, was ridden for me by a mate who was meant to be following me. I felt so disappointed I didn't feel comfortable riding her to the MOT, major sense of failure ![]() But she passed yeyyyyy. Back in my Mums garage, just need to tax her and try again, but that will be when I am in a positive mood. Bad day for Shell ![]()

Practise and then practise some more. That's the only way to overcome your fears and unsteadiness.
Good luck |

Kwak's right. You haven't forgotten how, you just need to build your confidence up. Hardly surprising. You'll get there, Shell. ![]()

Do you know what, you did it though. You could have backed out, but you didn't.
I don't know what happened, but take it slowly and you'll be fine. I think it's really brave of you. |
