Newsflash: I bought myself a motorcycle! It’s a Yamaha XG250 Tricker, like this one here. I’ll try to get around to snapping a shot of my own Tricker, even if it’s just standing in the garage waiting for spring right now…

I guess you could say that this is my ultimate camera accessory. The Tricker will get me further from home than my bicycle, and it will get me to places where the car can’t go. Plus, it’s infinitely more fun than a car! Until I break my bones, anyway…

I’ve wanted a motorbike since I was a teenager. Most of the time the bike dream has been dormant, but every once in a while something would happen that makes it surface, only to be dismissed again. But since one of my new neighbours turned out to be an experienced biker, I figured that this is the best chance I will ever get. He can teach me everything I need to know about motorbikes, and most importantly – he can teach me how to ride one!
