New "mid-life crisis" rider in Brampton

Well done, congratulations. Think of it this way, it's simply another chapter in your life. I only started riding at 45, between raising a family, business and life in general, I actually consider this approach more sound.

The bike you chose is fabulous, tight twin, nimble and exclusive somewhat.

Find yourself a small group of smart riders to ride with and enjoy your newfound pleasure.

Cool bike and welcome. You just need saddle time. 45 years riding and I still notice the difference if I get a couple of back to back 1500k weekends - ride up to the Forks on a weekend and chat with the riders there. They'll love your ride and you can have a bit of fun in the area tho the Forks of the Credit is under construction just now - there are some others in the area good for a new rider.

Thanks. I've been hitting the Forks of the Credit and also Hockley Road and I have managed to log about 750km in the last two weeks. The seat time definitely helps, and there is something new to learn with every ride.
