I've just come back from my first scooter ride as going back to work tomorrow after the accident. It's fantastic, when I came back I couldn't believe I found it difficult the first 5 minutes in my street here, it's great. And accelerates better th an a geared 125 from memory but that might have been me at the time :-)

I find myself thinking if I dont have to do anything else but no that's it just brake and off again. No checking for neutral no nothing.

I managed to get a nod of 1 proper biker (cruiser) not sure if the guy recognised me but i know him from commuting in the morning. For the rest i saw loads of harleys who of course i didn't nod at, and then came the difficult bit there were other scooters, what do i do now, nod? at a scooter?? have managed it once ( a nice vespa) but nothing came back my way. Maybe it's not such a friendly community.

I think there's luggage space for 5 rucksacks instead of 1!
