iridiumstill sick. ugh. not yet to the "i'm getting better, really i am" stage. still being (somewhat) patient, but after a few days of this i turn into a very grumpy and irritable sick person.
BUT
i passed the MSF course, know the basics of motorcycle-riding, and will hopefully have my license within a few weeks. banzai!
now i just have to wait for the certificate-paper to arrive in the mail, then go down to the DMV and take the written test. today's class was more challenging, for several reasons: we were doing more advanced maneuvering, i was sick and slightly off-focus from the cold-meds, and it started raining halfway through the afternoon. but hey, it's good to have the experience of riding in the rain on a safe course. and i learned that yes, in fact, the painted road-lines do get wicked slippery in the rain. (skidded out on a stop, but didn't drop the bike. go me.)
any thoughts or suggestions on bikes? i may be looking for one soon...
