Ah don't worry Dizzi Lizzi...
I thought I was going great guns and now I feel unnerved...
Don't know if it's normal.. but I've totall y lost the plot and to my
dismay I dropped my bike AGAIN !!!!!!!
I am so spewing.... I hate losing control of my baby expecially
when I am doing really slow STUPID turns (in parking lots) !!!!
Anyway, look, you have your days... I guess...
This crappy weather doesn't help...
I was doing fine until Richo told me that it is extra dangerous
riding in wet weather... I was actually still riding around
everywhere then I locked the back brake and skidded on my
way back home on Friday.... 3 times... Totally lost my confidence...
I'm hoping it will get better with better weather...
It takes time like all things... I think the important thing
is to just ENJOY whatever little bit you can do....
Even if that means dropping the bike... looking like a goose
and having to ask for help to lift it up off the ground because
your arms are too scrawny to pick up your own bike !!!
It's not a race... it's just an experience....
