Riding bike has been my dream since young age. Not only after I met my ex-boyfriend that I had a feeling about bike but it goes well before, well..during high school all my puppy love has a bike, I'm used to ride theirs..I stole my late father's bike(he was a young-at-heart kinda chap, he owns Suzuki RXZ). When I was 16..pushing it away from the house when he had an afternoon nap and ride away in the neighbourhood.
My first crush on an older guy who ride big Kawasaki something..something..(before I don't know the model, just the name)..He knew I liked him and always ride in front of my mothers' food stall and smile at me...(that time how I wish I could ride too) I was 14 at that time..I learnt the first time and went into a ditch at our old house in Kajang when I was 13.It's just a small Boon Siew Honda 'kapchai' owned by my brother in law but his brother sort of taking care of it and I ask him to teach me..
Then when I get older, I met a bunch of friends who owns Ducatis, Honda R1 & R6 and Aprilia Pegaso. Wish I would've taken a license back then when it's still easy to get and cheaper. But people always said its dangerous and if it rains, you'd have to stay under the bridge..BUT DO THEY UNDERSTAND THE FEELING RIDING ONE????
Had to bury the dream for a while and continue with my life...get a well-paid job..get married...but now the feeling emerges...I don't think I can contain it anymore..I HAD to RIDE again...LEGALLY so to say.
And in Dubai, for a woman to get a motorcycle license, one has to get an approval from Dubai Road & Transport Authority (RTA)..don't blame them, coz people get killed on UAE roads everyday..speeding, unskillful drivers, lack of awareness and proud to own a huge 4 X 4 so they can drive super fast on 5 sometimes 6 lane highway. Riding a bike in UAE can be well mean to get a DEATH CERTIFICATE free of charge.
So since we might..err..might...move back here in Malaysia..(maybe when we have kids that ready to go to school)..so, I'm thinking why not..its easier to get the license now than later since I have the time and money).Even if I don't..I wish I could ride in Europe where people ride safely..maybe do a tour with Kalle's Finnish friends across Finland and Denmark or Sweden..maybe...
