Hello from Etobicoke :)

[Tom250]

Hello

Ive been riding for about 4 months now. I currently ride a 2011 Kawasaki Ninja 250R in pearl blue. The thing that really surprised me is how friendly everyone is. I used to ride a Cbr 125R and had a 600 pull up next to me. He pulled up his visor and said hi, and that simple gesture both pleasantly surprised and inspired me.

Im a pretty fast learner- I've for a good feel for my new bike already- but of course being careful as always. Being a medic, I see a lot of things on the road that just shouldn't be- and want to try avoiding becoming a statistic myself.

Some minor concerns aside- riding has given me some degree of inner peace. The feeling is spectacular and has since made me loathe cages. Not that I have anything against cars, but it's like comparing apples to oranges- and I've seemingly taken a kind of fondness to oranges as of late.

The other part of it is the people. Being someone who naturally tries to help people, I was happy to see a similar attitude amongst most riders- and it makes me feel great to be a part of that kind of community.

Well I'm going to finish this latte and continue enjoying riding. If anyone out of etobicoke wants to get together just message me.

Cheers,

Tom
