One from today...going really slow around the lot.
Yes, my feet are hovering and not on the pegs...going too slow. I think I'm going to go get this registered Monday so we can go to a bigger lot to practice. I'm getting my permit the 27th. |

Trying to get her to look through the turns...
She has that zombie, head-locked-straight-forward, white knuckle thing going on. I think the next step is a larger lot so we can get up enough speed for the bike to stabilize itself. So far everything has been at the 1st gear, wobbly speeds. Though I can't complain. She's doing very well for someone who has never ridden a full sized bike before. |

Bite me. :P It's hard to get into that from the front seat...I'm working on it! I never realized just how limited your sight is in that helmet until I actually NEEDED to see...It's a big transition...

Actually that was somewhat of a compliment

Oh, I already thanked him here for the compliment part...
I'm not upset or taking it personally...I see it as constructive criticism. I was razzing... |

I can't get over how clean that bike is.
I'll hopefully get some of my long NYS rides in soon so I'm probably going to pass through that area once or twice.
