Default Grinning from ear to ear :D

....as I took the missus out for an hour just now

She's expressed an interest in the bike, wants to do her CBT and potentially DAS but has never been on a bike until she met me. We've been meaning to get her a lid for aaages but finally made it down to hein gericke in York today and purchased a nice shiny HJC.

She was nervous and excited in equal measures but we rode about 4/5 miles before I stopped to see if she was ok - she had a big grin on her face we planned to come home after that but she asked "is there a longer way home?" = me and her down some backroads I've never ridden before... in the dark. I hate riding in the dark but I properly enjoyed it tonight

I really cannot wait for the GM now - just need to get some proper long distance rides and a camping rehearsal run at dalby forest done, then we'll be all set for the highlands at the end of the month.

BRING IT ON!!! Muahahaha

Sounds like you'd better book that CBT up for her then, just think, once she's passed her DAS and got her own bike you could have a two to choose from!
