It's official

Yes I am now officially a biker! I came off the scooter yesterday- I am amazed how unshocked I have been by the whole scenario. I think mainly because I came away with only a few scrapes and bruises. Walking is a little difficult and the lesson has been learnt- never, ever ride without a helmet or without gloves no matter what the weather. Not sure if I'll have the courage to get on the bike once I can walk better again- the right knee took quite a bashing but it's just bruising-but I think I should.
Charlie is ok, his breakpads had worn out and in the heat of yesterday they expanded and the front wheel locked making the bike unbalanced. Praise the Lord it happened just as I was pulling off at a traffic lights so not going more then 0.5 mph. Some very lovely builder guys stopped, put the bike in their van and drove me home. Charlie has some scrapes on his left side too and will probably be road worthy again in about a week. Anyone want to buy a Vespa?!
only kidding- or am I?
All a process of learning, I think God is really wanting to teach me vulnerability at the moment and learning to ask for help- so thank you Marta for driving me around yesterday and today. Very very much appreciated.
Going out limping tonight should be an experience.......................
