Last summer I bought my first bike at the age of 56, my 93 Aspencade, as a new rider I had no idea what a beast I chose as a first bike. The first week it tipped over on me at a stop and crushed my big toe. Many questions, doubts and fears haunted my mind while I sat out from work last summer with a full leg cast. After all the doubting myself I listened to the advice and encouragement of the folks on this board and purchased a smaller more manageable bike. I found a Magna VF750 and gained confidence in my riding ability and also started taking out my wing early on weekend mornings for pleasant invigorating rides. Damn glad I remounted the steed, I love riding a motorcycle and God I hope I always will!
