A very good friend of mine here in the UK said on Monday, while we were out for a ride "We live our lives looking through glass...We get up in the morning and check out the day through a pane of glass....We drive to work in our cars and look at the road ahead & other commuters through more glass....and then we sit in our offices, gazing out...wishing we were elsewhere...through glass. Riding motorcycles gets us out of our glass prisons & gives us pure, unobscured freedom!"....Those weren't his exact words...but you get the gist of it!

Fuzz says motorcycles have enriched her life...well that counts for me too! ;o)

4 years ago riding a motorcycle was just a teenage ambition that looked like it was never going to be fulfilled...and now...here I am...with a beautiful bike, amazing friends...Fuzz & Crudmop, Sheila & the Valley Lynx MCC crew here in Wales...and an absolute love of life!

• Every ride is an adventure...a story to tell.
• Every person I meet is an individual character...who just happens to share a passion for bikes.
• Bad days become good just by flicking through my photo albums...We live in an ever changing world...you can never have too many photos...they're our legacy.
• Dreams have become memories.
• Work becomes just something to fill the winter months and something that gets in the way of riding during the spring / summer.
• I've discovered roads I would never have traversed in the car and with them the real beauty of my home country (Wales)
• I've discovered "grin factor"
• I've discovered that I've got a really shite singing voice :o{)   (...you guys know what I mean! Bacon, Bacon...)
• I've got a great excuse to hang out in leather...it sure makes up for all the bad hair days!
• I've just returned from a long weekend in France for the Le Mans 24 Hour bike racing event...an experience I want to re-live again and again! AWESOME!

AND

• I'm soon to be riding around New York State! WooHoo!.... Me!... A little (well...medium-sized) Welsh peasant-girl seeing, first hand, everything I've ever seen in the movies and much, much more besides. AMAZING!

I'm grateful I can now look back on my life in years to come and say that I did something amazing with it! Motorcycles have enriched our lives?....I guess so! ;o))
