    I’m 60 and bought an RR three months ago and love it. The other bike is an XR for longer trips and crap weather but I can happily ride the RR for 3 hours and hop off in no pain. The bike is roomy and cruise control allows you to sit up and stretch from time to time so all good. Do you still have the bike and is there a further update?

    I only passed my mod 2 because ironically I had thought I had failed in the first 10 minutes. I failed to understand the examiners instructions due to comms issues on a roundabout and had gone into lane 2 on roundabout where I was supposed to be proceeding straight, Only realised he said 2 not 3 when I saw him in lane 1 in his car at the roundabout. I just went around the roundabout twice to ensure I wasn’t being dangerous but i thought as I hadn’t followed his instructions i would have failed. Straight after that I calmed down and started riding normal as I believed I was no longer under any pressure as I had already failed in my mind. I got back to the test centre and was told i passed, with the only errors being that i went 22 in a 20, and not seeing a large pothole in the road on a negative camber turn i nearly hit the pothole but was more focussed on the positioning for the turn.

    Sounds like you got off very lightly especially at that speed 😮 I got rear ended at 40 mph and got smashed to bits, spent 3 months in hospital and had to learn to walk again let alone ride. Managed to get back on a scooter after 3 years and now back on a bike 5 years later. I wasn’t so much worried about riding again it was just the pain that kept me off a bike for so long. Consider yourself very lucky sir. Ride safe 👍

    Those are good pieces of advice: setting goals could be the right solution to me. I haven't so much time to ride so I can't feel secure enough to ride for hours and sometimes it ends with not going out with my bike. I started just some months ago with my "real" bike (I had a 125 before) and in the beginning, I rode on the highway and on the twisties but now I always feel a bit nervous to start. By the way then, when I'm ON the bike all that feels stop.

    I gave up riding due to anxiety over being afraid of head wind on dual carriageway this made me so unsettled that i sold my bike. Anything over 45 and the wind blast made me grab the bars like i was going to get blown off the back seat even with my knees desperately gripping the tank it just felt too much for me and its been years now since and i really regret it alot and feel a failure for not persevering more and actually fighting the fear with practice. Id love to try again im nearly 47 and worry itll scare me again but your video really inspires hope and better understanding that we all have similar worries and fears and that by doing it regularly it does reduce that anxiety or fear of the unknown.
