Title: Daughter’s Maiden Ride on a Street Bike Post by: GregP on February 13, 2021, 04:56:03 PM My 20 y.o. daughter had her first ride on a real street bike today. She rode MX when she was younger so not new to riding but never rode a street bike before today. It took her a couple minutes to re-orient to shifting and made her first few turns with her leg out! [laugh]
She had a blast and is all excited to get her permit now. Will get her signed up for MSF (only way for under 21 to get a permit in CA) and get her up to speed. Rented the R3 from Eagle Rider, went in to get the KTM 390 but it was getting serviced. R3 is actually a perfect little bike to get started on, so it worked out. Hopefully we’ll get to a track day after she gets a few street miles under her belt. https://www.flickr.com/photos/112143703@N07/ I might have had a s much fun as she did, just watching!

boots where are her boots Title: Re: Daughter’s Maiden Ride on a Street Bike Post by: GregP on February 18, 2021, 06:11:40 AM I know, I know. High top Chucks where as close as we got to ankle covering foot ware that morning. I told her to wear boots that covered her ankles and that’s how she turned up. Not ideal for sure. [thumbsdown]
That will be the next piece of riding kit we get before our next outing. |
