Totally off normal topic (if there every really is such a thing on this blog), but I’ve signed up to take motorcycle riding lessons in a couple weeks. I am still on the fence about getting a bike, but this seems like a logical first step. I’m looking forward to it. No idea what to do for a first bike should I decide to pursue it. All the bikes I really like are much more than likely to be way to much bike for a first time rider. Admittedly, that takes away some of the allure – not getting to ride a cool bike. ;-) I get the feeling I need to stick to 600cc or less and that does not leave a lot of cool factor in the choices that remain! ;-) I’ve even heard some say to not get anything over 500cc but that is just not an option – I can afford a bike now so I kinda need to get something that I can grow into ‘cause I am not sure an upgrade option will exist in a year or two. Anyone with recommendations/experiences as a first time rider, please leave a comment. And no, I am refuting the notion that this is some kind of mid-life act out!!! ;-)
