Dirt rides every few days

I have been riding my Honda 125 on dirt roads every few days. Done almost 400km all up. It is just so much fun riding on little back dirt roads. I notice I’m going around corners a lot faster now I’m used to riding fast on the EV5.

It isn’t fast up the hills, and I develop some bad habbits like pretty much keeping throttle open all the time. I get to experience drifting sideways when on loose dirt, and even occasionally needing my foot down. Comming out onto the bitumen once there was a heap of loose gravel, and as I turned the back end went out miles, and I kept good control.

I’ve been practicing heaps for my test ride and license on this bike. I need to spend a lot more time in suburbs with it.

Going to book my test ride in the next week. Soon to be on Ps
