I cant say I agree with the article that its in my DNA to ride a bike, none of my family ride a motorcycle of any kind and are very much against it, however, my father is/was very much into fast cars.

I wanted to ride a motorbike more than I ever wanted to drive and at the age of 16/17 my parents wouldn't let me. It was a big NO WAY. So I passed my car test at 17.

It wasn't until I met Rob that I had the chance to ever get on a motorbike.. and well after a trip on the back to Stonehenge and around Wiltshire I was totally hooked.. and 2 1/2 months on... well you you know the rest.. I go on enough! Might be 11 1/2 years gone since I first wanted to, but better late than never I guess!
