Pete I can offer you the exclusive package, a night in my spare room, trip round the M25 and including lunch at the Little Chef of your choice....
Only £100
I am up for a Dave's Tour of the M25 .... but I aint going to Little Chuff, I know a much nicer place just of the 25 in Westerham who do great Scampi
Get a 125 DT or some thing to get used to, they don't go that fast then move on to something else when your confidence grows.
My Sister did the same and after 3 months riding a put-put she got bored, took the big bike test and got a 600-somehting-or-other ............ she is a girl, so you can do it too
Go for it
Bike are fun and an adrenaline rush ....... but safety first and all that
I fancy doing the same, and want something that goes "potato, potato, potato, potato, potato, "
