Won't be long before you're taking Cassie up on those fish and chips in Whitby.
When I joined here six short months ago I really could never imagine the day I'd be able to go pillion to Whitby and riding myself had never even entered my head.
Six months later and I'm pillioning nearly 400 miles in a day to Wales and thinking nothing of riding over to Wetwang after work for fish and chips, riding home in the dark and giving a prolonged 2 finger salute (means taking your hand off the bars!) to the twat of a lorry driver that wouldn't let me overtake him, when I did finally get enough speed out of the CG! (remember the thing about overtakes needing hours if not days to plan and execute - today was one such overtake).
It won't be long until you're doing the same.
