I am having sooo much fun riding my motorcycle. I've been trying to ride it anytime I don't have to carry anything besides my purse with me (I carry my big one around, and bungee it to the passenger seat), and it's above 50 degrees. Any colder than that, and it's just too much windchill to handle, even with the riding clothes I've managed to put together. I'm getting more and more comfortable, and I've even learned to stop pretty well. Stopping was something I had the most trouble with in the class. All that "both brakes while downshifting" required coordinating entirely too many limbs doing different things at the same time.

I'm not sure yet about trying highway speeds. I may just wait until next spring before I try that.
