Hi to everyone,
Thanks for letting me become a new member. Just letting you know I am Rustynutz' Wife, Sue.
A little bit about me in the context of motorbikes.
I have always yearned to ride, since my first boyfriend owned a Kawasaki Z650.
Unfortunately, ended up marrying my first husband who hated Motorcycles (no accounting for taste, I know).
It took me 23 years to wake up and realise my real passion was finding someone who liked motorbikes as much as I do. Enter Rusty...
I did attempt to get my Motorcycle Learners a couple of years ago, but felt a bit intimidated as I was the only one with no riding experience, only as a pillion.
I was told to go back for a 1 hour session one on one, but unfortunately back then I couldn't get away from my public service role to do it.
Since then, have been through some radical health issues, am now regaining my strength. Hooray.
I love getting out on the back of Russell's ST1300. It brings me great joy and freedom.
I worked in a bank for 8 years and then worked for Vicroads as a Licence Tester for 10 years. (Yes, I was one of those people).
Then escaped to become a driving instructor, running my own business. Road safety is a bit of an interest for me on account of this.
It's great catching up with the lovely folk at the RTE's.
I am a bit of an amateur when it comes to Forums, so please 'bear' with me.
