I have class on Saturday mornings ~35 miles from home, so one of the things I was looking forward to was taking my new bike to class. And I did this morning for the first time. It was my first time doing anything more than around town freeway riding, so I had a friend drive with me, to make me a little more comfortable, but I did it. Yayy!!!

Very cool to use only about a gallon of gas, instead of 1/4+ tank in my car.
Bikes make you smile at the bowser hey!
Soon you'll be off the freeway, blasting around on secondary highways for fun on the way home. Best stress relief ever. :thumb:
yeppers :icon_mrgreen: :cheers:
Met up with a friend and did a little bit of the backroads and fun stuff today. Got stung by a bee while dodging vultures. Man, I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried. I just wanna know how you get stung by a bee in that tiny little partially hidden strip of skin between your helmet and your jacket! It was fun anyways, though. Makes for a great story. "So yeah, I was ducking while these vultures were swooping around some roadkill, when I thought one of them pooped on me. I swipe at my neck, check my glove, and it's a bee!"
Hah.. be glad it wasn't INSIDE your helmet. That sounds fun, no?
Or worse yet... it could have been.... A SQUIRREL! (http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=22829.0)
