This is the wrong time of year to be on a bike, you get cold in half an hour and end up in a cafe trying to get warm again.
My Blog, started to record my adventures as I headed off to live and work in Sri Lanka for a couple of years in March 2006. The blog is now a general record of what I am doing, I have also added the VSO process detail from April 2005 for new Volunteers reading it. Please note: the views expressed in this blog are the author's own and do not necessarily reflect those of VSO.

VSO Motorcycle training
I did a weeks competency assessment with MOTAG to ensure I was safe to ride a motorbike as my placement in Sri Lanka required use of a motorbike. I haven't ridden a bike since I was a teenager but got on well. I started on a 250cc but once the instructor decided I was safe he put me on a 500cc which was a much easier ride.
