Hellooooo~!
Yudanja here. Am in the process of getting a CBR125R, hope to pass my test with it.
Erm... very into my martial arts, try to train 2x a week, and if I can't make it to class I am probably making up for it in the gym.
As far as biking goes, it's totally against the family's wishes and has only been a recent addition to my life.
My earliest childhood memory with motorcycles was from about 6-7 years old, whilst travelling with my parents in the car. Some guy filtered through the jam that we were stuck in, and I said out loud, "aren't motorbikes great?"
Boy, did I get a bashing by my parents!!! Bikes are dangerous and bikers are villians and all that.
Well, that's about all the bike related stuff that I have done until recently, some 20-odd years later. :)
So, now that I have the real thing, I am very happy that I have you guys to share the fun with. :)
Lots of luck for your test & hope you love every minute of it! You're not alone with the family thing! lol
Both my parents used to ride, yet when I desperately wanted a motorbike for my 16th birthday, suddenly bikes were evil and nasty & banned from my life! & hey, I'm 40 years old now, finally trying to learn... have I told my folks? Have I heckaslike! ;o)
I'll just turn up to their place by bike one day & watch their reaction *WEG* No doubt it'll be eyes raised heavenwards, a sigh and "Huh! Typical!" ;o)
