I began riding motorbikes when I was eighteen years old, as a passenger on the back of my friend Luke's bike. It was a classic motorbike - big, fast, and noisy! Our first few rides were short trips - which he was very careful to make as enjoyable as possible for me - and as a result I fell in love with the whole motorbike experience almost immediately.
After a couple of months of shorter rides, we went on a longer group ride with Luke’s motorcycling club, which he said would give me a good idea of the pleasures and difficulties of motorcycling. We rode approximately 100 km in one day, and it was a great experience - although we only managed to get less than half of the way to our destination. The ride was wonderful and we had beautiful weather as we went along the quiet roads. However, after we’d stopped to have a rest and were about to carry on riding, one rider in the group, Tania, suddenly found her bike wouldn't start. Some people in the group finally managed to get it going, but in the end Tania had to turn round and go back home by herself, knowing
that if she stopped anywhere, she wouldn’t be able to start her bike again. She bravely decided she could ride back home alone, but I doubted whether I'd have such a confident attitude in the same situation.
Our group then drove on to the mountains and stopped for some lunch - and that’s where things started to go wrong. The weather turned bad and it began to snow. Then, without asking anyone, the leader of the group had the idea of going in a completely new direction up a steep mountain road, with corners that would be difficult for motorbikes even when the weather was good - and by now it was snowing quite heavily!
When we finally made it to the top of the mountain, Luke was annoyed. He said it was too risky to be on a mountain in such bad weather, and that we should go back down. We were both frozen when we reached the bottom, despite our cold-weather clothes. However, when we got back to my house we both began to see the funnier side of it all. and I immediately asked Luke when we could go again. I realised I could handle the worst of times on a motorbike, and there and then I made up my mind to try and save up for one.
