I am really excited!!! I am enrolling to take a Motorcycle Mechanics class AND Small Engine Repair classes I and II. I bought a book, "How to Repair Your Motorcycle" and the more I read, the more excited I got and the more I know I can do it. The night classes don't start until spring, but I decided I can make good use of that time by studying my book and learning the terms and parts of a motorcycle, so I will be better prepared for my class. I've already emailed my instructor twice and he is a very nice man. I asked him if the classroom had a pneumatic impact driver and if it didn't could I bring my own :) I'm going to get a torque wrench as well. Santa will be surprised at my Christmas list this year :) I've also decided to convert my chicken coop shed into a bike shop and rebuild my own motorcycle. I don't care how long it takes, I'm going to enjoy the journey as well as the destination (a bike I can ride). Looks like I'll need to get my motorcycle license as well. And maybe a few Harley Davidson t-shirts to keep up my biker chick image - ha ha. One thing I've learned about myself is that although I may not have patience, I do have perserverance and persistance. Maybe I'll find friends in class that will want to help me build my bike or at least to go riding with when I'm done. Yea!!! I'm so happy to have goals and a purpose and a lot to look forward to.
