Do I chance it or not? My luck with Zuky I say not
You are right to say not, too much to risk methinks. Good things come to those who wait Shell . You have waited this long another couple of days won't hurt.

Says Foxy itching to buy another bike as mine is still not repaired do I or don't I??

Foxy wants another bike..... what is it... buy it, bend it, replace it???? lol

Shelly, take your time, we've got an Indian summer arriving now (any summer would be good to be honest, but if the Indian's want to lend us one....) so plenty time to feel your way back into it.

You're as bad as me for buying bikes

As an old mate of mine always says when I open the garage door "One can never have too many motorcycles. Now, if you shoved that over there and dragged that across, and stacked that crap on the shelves, you'd have enough room for another bike...I've got this Hon..."

Good luck today Shelly. Just keep going, maybe have a few tears if it helps and then get back on and try again.

Catch ma drift.

Likelihood of being caught is slim but not worth it in my job
C'mon Shell, flutter those eyelids... are you claiming you haven't done that in the past?

Woo hoo my insurance certificate came this morning which enabled me to tax Zuky.

My thoughts, do I or don't I? Had loads of jobs I needed to do but Kwak text me so I told him to come over. He took me to town to get my tax then straight round to my Mums to get Zuky.

WOO HOO I did it ................... yeyyyyy.

Took her round the block, which is literally 2 mins, Kwak stayed outside my Mum's hoping I made it back. I did, OK got the gears completely wrong but hey I am blonde.

Did the block again, Kwak sitting and waiting .... bit better !

Then we decided to go for a little tootle, few miles.

20 miles later I figured I had concurred my nerves a bit but didn't want to be too cocky.

Did some straights and some small bendy roads and a few islands woo hoo I stayed shiney side up and had a big grin on my chops.

Thanks Kwak for making me go out, the fact it wasn't planned and I couldnt get worked up helped me a great deal.

Woo hoo roll on tomorrow !!
