crazy about bikes
Living in France, 54, just discovered bikes, never ridden before july 2007 when I got 50 cc peugeot scooter, then MBK Skycruiser 125i ( yamaha )then FJ 1200 and will soon take the test in France ( Charente Maritime ). Regret that I didn't experience the bike thing years ago so I've got some catching up to do and some kilometres to go.
Love riding in the rain into the backwash of an oncoming lorry, love learning about what the bike can and can't do, love the uncertainty of not knowing what happens next, love every journey like it's an expedition, love looking round bike shops at stuff, love hearing about what everyone else has done, love spotting a gendarme before he spots me, all you need is love.
