well i have a permit and a buddy is going to take me out on sat or sun for some practice riding but i just couldnt wait.see i have my bike at his house and i stoped by to see her (the bike) you know to oh and ah and start her up and say ah some more.well i looked up the driveway and by up i mean way up cause its steep and long but definatly more steep.so i got the idea that i would practice starting off on a hill seeing thats what the diveway is.so i'm all pumped up cause i havent really moved my bike yet i start going up the hill and wasnt giving it enough throtle so yeah i killed it. after several attempts at getting going on the hill and many failures and many strts of the bike i kill the batt. so yes my first ride was 40 foot up a driveway and oh yeah i knew i couldnt turn her around so you guessed it 40 foot down the drivway backwards and seriously the driveway really is steep.so that be the lesson for the day.......what goes up must come down but man it was a good 40 foot run while it lasted.....i'm doin it,i'm doin it i'm going lol cheers!!
