obalanga 0 Posted February 14, 2013 its been two months since i started riding....well not really two month as the weather has been crap this side of the pennines but the verdict is I LOVE IT!!!!. I have named my bike cossette because of the tragic start we had together. What have I learnt so far????-thermal, socks, thermal socks, thermal socks. My toes nearly fell off on a ride out with normal socks._mind the horse. Horses don't much seem to like bikes never mind the devilish looks I get from the riders.- Got to slow down abit earlier than I did on a car. Nearly went into the bushes with that.I'm sure there is a lot more and there will be no shortage of suggestions so please fire away and educate me more.On a nother note, I got myself one of those viper rs 131 bluetooth lids but it will not pair with my garmin nuvi 2515lt . It does (sat nav) find the helmet (as blinc ii) attempts a pair but then rejects. Any pointers?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
