Welcome to the site,
That is a great way to learn and is very inexpensive.

Take it slow and practice often, after a couple months start trying new things..You will outgrow the bike quickly and in six or so months will be looking to move up. Sorry to hear about the other news...Hope You both feel better.

he is fine. thanks... he stayed back home in IN.. and bought a motorcycle. hate to say it but Id never ride with him heheh..I get really paranoid with him. never been much of an automobile person except for maybe the pickup truck. I love trucks and of course motorcycles. The scooter I have now is really big, much bigger than what I was wanting but it looks really nice runs well and Im sure I will out grow it soon but Im not going to rush into another purchase being that Im a starving artist.
I been riding around the neighborhoods and have been trying new things I just wish I had someone to ride with because I dont know the area and if I get lost... well Im lost. if I was in my old neighborhood (i recently moved to another part of the denver area 3 weeks ago) I could ride around comfortably. Im so excited to be able to take myself to work rather than relying on others. Most the drivers around here are so impatient and inconsiderate. That is my main fear. |

Starving? Most starving artists cannot dish out 700 bucks...
Only one way to get to know the area..And that is to ride around and check it out...You'll find a someone to ride with after time.

Nice scooter. I may have to look into them too as a street ride.

thanks, it's been 3 years since the accident. Im comfortable with dad driving now but with my sister in law(she should not be on the road) and my bf... I still get nervous.
and so far I like my roketa, I don't get much opportunity to practice riding it, good thing it isnt too hard but with working as many hours as I do... doesnt leave for much time. |
