Today we bought me my first motorcycle!!! I got a small 2009 Honda Rebel 250. It is light enough for me to handle and something simple for me to learn how to ride on. I spent about an hour riding it around the housing here getting a feel for it. 2nd gear has never felt so good! "Driving" really is better "riding". Aaron was kind enough to take some pics and a video of my first ride. (And I never even dropped it, which I sort of was expecting.)
We had to drive an hour away to hit a decent bike shop. We went there yesterday, I fell in love with this bike, and we went back today with the trailer and bought it. We are waiting for the bonus for me to buy a couple of helmets that I want to be painted with a certain design I drew up. I also could not find a jacket that fit my short arms with my big bust, so we have to hit up another shop somewhere else we were directed to. Again, I figure that when we got out to really ride I will just wear Aaron's jacket for now. I already have a helmet that I have been wearing while riding backseat on Aaron's crotch-rocket.
I did almost run Aaron over once. I was using my front brake handle and accidentally gassed it up at the same time...lol. I yelled for him to move out of the way in time. He didn't get upset or anything. What a Trooper!
