It's the best therapy

Motorcycles are in my blood. There are many photos of me as a smiling two-year-old astride my dad’s BSA Gold Star, heck I was even brought home from the hospital after being born in a Bullet sidecar! My personal biking history started at 16 on a yellow FS1-E and the weekly ritual of scanning the for sale ads in MCN with a biro, but stopped when I got a job with a company car. Fast forward to now. The one thing that stayed with me is the love of riding. All I could afford is a 2002 Honda SFX 50 scooter which I brought lovingly back to life and it has been lifechanging. It is the best stress relief you can get. Yes its only 50cc but on a twisty lane when the sun is out it is pure smile-filled heaven. Terry Hunter, email
