I'm hoping you went as you will never look back - it's the best thing I ever did MANY years ago. Go for it girl, it will start a new chapter in your life - look at all the support you have behind you already

Yay
I did it and managed not to fall off
I kept stalling and got a bit damp but not scared any more and totally loved it. Even though I didn't quite make it round the playground, I still feel a huge sense of achievement just by getting on and having a go


Didn't realise how achey I would feel though




Same again next week






*needs happy dancing smiley*

Well done hon ,


As JP said the achey feeling will pass once you relax I had it a LOT when I started, to the extent that my instructor one day said in my ear 'please relax going round corners, from here your so tence you look like your struggling to have a c**p'

Well I hope once you have all your bits and pieces and a bike you will join us on any ride out we do, not just the Learners one, you will be welcome at any time HRC

I got a lot of hints and tips in the 6 months I did on a 125, and a lot of that was done pootleing round on rides out with some very patient BMers
