Little Yeller Takes To The Dirt. was created by Tinkicker
First outing on the dirt in the field behind the house, followed by around five road miles around the village.
She behaved flawlessly, no rattling on the dirt apart from my broken ribs, they had a bit of a moan, but I have no trust in her as yet. Hence staying well within pushing distance of the house.
You can tell how tiny she is by using the helmet and gloves for scale. An absolute hoot to ride though. Very willing little motor.

Indeed. I am taking the missus out in the back field this afternoon to learn her how to ride it.
Once she is confident in using the controls and general riding, it is hers.

I was pleasantly surprised by the missus. She did better than 75% of my old CBT students.
She learned how to take the bike off the stand, start and stop the engine, operate the brakes and clutch, put it into and out of gear and ride around in large circles. Only stalled it once.
It was obvious she was getting tired and starting to plateau, so lesson over for today. She thoroughly enjoyed it once she was able to ride with her feet up on the pegs.
Next time will be changing gear and riding tighter circles.
