OK so did you take some kind of training class, to prepare you for riding in traffic? Do you wear gear like helmets, jackets, etc? Are you going to make this a track bike? Do you plan on stunting on this bike? Are there lots on cool curvy, hilly roads around where you live? Can you get up on a Sunday morning, gas up and ride 50 miles of back country roads to a small diner for breakfast and coffee and another 60 to get home by a different route? Before the football game starts at noon? Can you beer-but a chicken? Do they have good beer in SA?
:laughing:

I currently have an HJC helmet, the one with the built-in sun shield, a Joe Rocket textile armored jacket, some Diamond Gusset riding jeans, Converse tactical boots, and a pair of armored riding gloves.
