awesome...

I've just been out with my mate Micheal on his CBR600 and it was feckin' awesome. *grin*

Aw man, it's been so bloody long since I was last on a bike. Too bloody long.

So yeah, he took me out around London for 3 hours. We biked around the centre for a while and then stopped for a quick drink. The freedom that I felt from being on the back of the bike is unlike any other feeling. The ability to move fairly freely and easily amongst the traffic and to accelerate so fast and leave everyone behind...it's just beautiful.

The sense of community that is to be found within much of the biking community is also unlike any other community. There are exceptions but no matter, the majority is pretty cool. I can't wait to get out again.
