I have Ben in the same position with my bike having a narcolepsy attack at the end of my driveway, on mine was on concrete, would personally prefer sand! I had to wait for help too because my ankle was wedge under the bike & curb. Yup it was embarrassing, particularly when a passerby stood gawking and finally asked if I needed help.Dar https://www.blogger.com/profile/14690180541358767168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8545332438527100199.post-87605483259431512572012-07-02T22:36:30.734-07:002012-07-02T22:36:30.734-07:00It is certainly fun, and will help your riding ski...It is certainly fun, and will help your riding skills no doubt...., get some thing nice and small though to start.Rogerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12048736059922578612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8545332438527100199.post-88248471676597517502012-07-02T22:35:24.942-07:002012-07-02T22:35:24.942-07:00Geeoff; You guys will love exploring this part of...Geeoff; You guys will love exploring this part of Auckland.
