What were you riding? Was the bike too much for you to handle since you mention that you're a novice? ATGATT is very important. I'm sorry that you feel that riding is not for you.

It's a Honda Ruckus frame, with a Yamaha BWS front fork & 2stroke 50cc (70head). Maxes out at around 70kph depending on wind.
Stock ruckus is a 4stroke and doesn't have disk brake.

Yeah, gear would've been a smart idea, two wipeouts is discouraging and painful.
Got my learners motorcycle license 4 or so years ago. Scooters just need a normal car license.

Seems like the kind of "sports" that should be shown on 'The Ocho'.

ESPN now also has axe throwing, which is a bit better

It's way better than one of my pet peeves about TSN's line-up... poker. Seriously how can poker be considered a sport???

Right there with you. There are so many new "preferences " I can't keep up with it.

That one looks like it runs the whole gambit.

I love my M3 BUT I wished I wasn't impulsive and waited as I was saving for a 997. I saw the car and impulsively bought it. Dont get my wrong, im happy but I still find myself staring at Porsche pages on IG etc.

Totally different cars. I think you either want a sports car or you don't.

You'll double back to Porsche eventually. I, too, have been in your shoes before, wishing I had just gone Porsche instead of buying another M car. Finally it happened for me and it will for you too.

I've been driving M3's for the better part of 20 years. Loving them is an understatement. The G8X would be in my driveway right now if I hadn't have been in a position to take advantage of the opportunity to finally get a 911. The truth is I've wanted a Porsche ever since the 997; even more so once the 991 hit the scene. The 992 is even better and I feel really fortunate to be at this point. Absent the P-Car I would be in an M car without a doubt.

I don't understand why Ed Sheeran is so popular. He copies shit in many of his songs and has been nailed for it multiple times by different music artists. That on top of the fact he looks like a nerdy ginger.
