The end date of my health insurance coverage is fast approaching, so I thought I'd celebrate with my very first motorcycle ride (haha, just kidding about the insurance part, Mom - I actually even have one day of overlap with the new policy!).
I'd been hoping to kick off my 'retirement' with the 2-day MSF beginner's motorcycle course sometime this month, but scheduling didn't work out. Fortunately, I have awesome friends, which meant there was a way for me to get my first motorcycle ride in before NZ even without the class. Pete took me on a great ride way out River Road on his bike in between the thunderstorms tonight. It was incredible – even made me consider changing my 'must-always-live-someplace-near-power-boatable-water' requirement, since it's a similar feeling. I really didn't need another expensive potential hobby especially right after quitting my job for a year though – scuba, digital photography and of course travel in general would have been enough!
Today was a big day in other regards, too – I sold my car and remaining furniture, although I still have the car until tomorrow and three pieces of furniture until Sunday. The whole thing still doesn't feel real yet...

if you want cheaper motorbike insurance then i highly recommend you go a step further than the MSF beginners course. Advanced motorcycle training can lead to a rather large cut in your premiums. Also its worth checking for your motor bike insurance online because then you can compare the policy details and the prices, which will ensure you get the best deal.
Keep smiling buddy - you will have way much more fun on two wheels than you did in the Jetta!
Peace
