I just spent the whole weekend learning to ride a motorcycle! Took the MSF (motorcycle safety foundation) basic rider course. I passed easily, but it took forever to get used to the clutch on the bike. I kept making it stall. But once I figured it out it was great fun riding. I LOVE going around curves! It's so much fun. I met some really nice people in the class too. We were mostly beginners who had never ridden before, so we all supported each other. And the instructors (there were 3) were great too. The bike I rode was a Honda Nighthawk, not sure what year but it was fairly old. Her name was Mercedes (all the bikes had stickers with names so we could remember what one we rode, ha).

So yeah, I passed the class, so now in four weeks I'll be getting my new license in the mail with a cycle endorsement! I'm so happy! All I need now is a bike of my own. Stinking college, taking all my money. I'd like a Yamaha R6 someday ([link]), but I'll probably start with something a bit smaller first.

So, what is everyone else up to?
