getting a new bike

triumph
For as long as I could remember, I have always secretly wanted to ride a motorcycle.
I have had friends who had them, and been a back seat rider, but I always wanted to ride my own.
for 1 reason or another, I never learned how to ride, nor did I ever buy a bike.
So, at my ripe middle age of 37, I have decided to throw caution to the wind, and finally feel the freedom I have wanted to feel.
I love to ride my mountain bike downhill, but going uphill is such a bore, so now I can finally have the benefit of going fast without the effort of pedaling up a hill to get that feeling. woo hoo
What I liked about this bike is it's more old style look. I am not in the market to be speeding down the freeway in a racer. It's just not my style.
I like the more cruising, just out for fun kind of bike, and this just caught my eye and fit my vision.
I am excited and nervous, but more on the excited side.
I probably wont actually get the bike until October, but I am still very excited.:)
