No mate, she is flying down a week early to have a few days with her aunt

Just a little update, I have been trying not to bombard this.

Teela and i have been getting out doing 80-100km trips with her bike, Today was the first day that I felt comfortable that she able to ride by herself (not that i am going to let her just yet lol)

She is following her corners nicely, traffic does not really bother her (Accept the odd 3 trailer semi, but they bother me to), We have been doing main highway riding mixing in smaller back roads that are in not as good condition, she is really getting to know her bike well too, working on her road postion handling the gusts of wind from trucks and the like.

The one thing we have discovered about the ZZR 250 is lots of vibration, i think it is the way the bike is though.

Here is a shot i took of us in Pittsworth today midway through our little trip today (http://goo.gl/maps/Ntx9f), i was taking her out to coffee, but the bloody coffee shop i was bragging about was closed!

Just an Update on Teela and bike and license

Teela is ready to go and get her license we are just finding the time now to do it, we have been riding quite a bit now and she is more than capable

in fact getting frustrated she has to wait for me to go out on the bike now haha

We have done some Farkling to the ZZR 250

Added a 12V USB plug to the bike

also put a ram mount Ball on the Handlebars so we can put her phone in the centre so it gets it away from the screen

Looks good Streak

Great to get the picture of the teddy in the mirror on bottom photo

Excellent news - Good to see Teela powering on

Biggles · « **Reply #413 on:** June 27, 2014, 09:52:25 AM »

Glad to read of the progress. It's been a long time since the last report.

BTW- who left that Beemer in the shed? Only temporary, I would hope!

And that straw poll shows the future of motorcycling isn't very bright. It will take real commitment and a lot of generous supporters for a young person to get their licence. Maybe that's the gummint's plan (reaches for tinfoil hat).

Streak · « **Reply #420 on:** December 31, 2014, 05:47:21 PM »

Well it has been a while between drinks on this thread, Teela today covered 320km which is her biggest day so far of riding, we took in the Kilcoy-Esk Road, and the Esk-Hampton road which is full of twisties, and Teela handled it all beautifully, she is turning into quite a decent rider, the slow corners are her only sticking point, but all is going well!

Wild Rose · « **Reply #421 on:** December 31, 2014, 07:35:23 PM »

Well done Teela

And it was a hot day to be out riding

Sabie · « **Reply #422 on:** January 01, 2015, 01:21:30 AM »

It sure was Leo, it almost hit 30 degrees.

.. almost ..... at one point I thought I was going to break a sweat .. But crisis averted.

I've been on A/L for the past 2weeks ..... Between the super warm and the rainy days I haven't turned a wheel ..... So well done who've braved the elements while I stay inside my climate controlled bubble.
On a totally unrelated topic ..... Happy New Year folks

Streak · « **Reply #424 on:** September 26, 2015, 05:55:13 PM »

Teela has done it!!! Long time coming but she is licensed to ride!!!!

Almost 9 hours of assessment today and Teela passed with flying colours!
