Its been a beautiful day here in Zuid (south) Holland today. After doing the husbandly chores i finally got out on the bike - way hay ! roads here i come. Sun shining, engine warm and not a rain cloud in site.
Found myself heading for various roads I am famliar with which I used to ride on my 125 - this route is particually great, it even has a hump-back bridge onto some corners :-
Found myself and several other riders going up and down this road. Am getting more confident in taking the GSXF into corners now and the cheshire-cat smile on my face is barely gone - just thinking of the ride makes me smile !
Last but not least I headed for an 'weird' road - after a suggestion from fellow katrider (sadly not yet met) - i headed for the A4 - this motorway is unsual because it just ends - it was built and they couldnt finish the section that joins it from Delft to rotterdam. Annoying for the commuters, but it has turned into somewhat of a drag strip. Accompoined by several other bikes doing the same loop it was amazing to reach great speeds and very satisfying to just keep repeating the same bends, increasing my cornering skills as I took them faster and deeper each time.
Really loving the Kat/GSXF - am hoping to stop off tomorrow on the car park where there was a great many bikers stopped today - frustratingly I couldnt find the exit road ! but have on google maps now
Will post pics !
