He shoots , he scores.....





Well today I took one big step towards my goal of getting my bike back by passing my first test. The test took a total of 8 hours with half of it being on the road, connected by radio mike, with the tutor. The first half was on a disused airfield and involved an array of tests including emergency stops, slow controlled turns and an assault course. The on-road was mind numbing as it was so hot and I was fully kitted up. I was quite dizzy and vague by the time I got home! The good news is that Tree and I went out today and bought my new bike. Tammy is now sold and goes to her new home later on today.
Tree is adamant that I will not miss Tammy but I think I will always have a soft spot for scootering about.
Then again, I have just fired up the Yammy and already become seduced by the sound of the V-twin rumbling like gentle thunder!
