Thanks for the welcoming words. A thread in a West Australian Motorcycle Forum posted today vindicates my taking up riding at such a relatively late stage in life!

Anything to help ward off senile dementia in such an exciting way is OK by me!

 

Cheers,

Hi, found this forum after registering on the new Australian CSS website.

 

Only started riding 5 years ago at age of 60 after some recalcitrant jemmied both doorlocks of my car when I was piloting ships late one night.

Bought a 50cc. motor scooter so I could lock it up in our office & the rest is history!

Caught the bug badly & ended up with both road & track bike.

 

To consolidate & catch up on 40 years of not riding bikes, did CSS Level 1 & 2 in November last year & 3 & 4 in January at Phillip island. Had a fantastic time + learnt heaps; especially Level 3. Privileged to have Keith & Dylan Code at some of our sessions.

 

All the levels greatly helped me to get my knee down properly, especially at Turn 2 & 6.

 

Look forward to accruing more knowledge from this forum.

 

Best wishes,

 

Vincenzo
