In the southern beach town of Verkala we rented a small Honda (they had sold the R.E. a few weeks ago) about the length of a scooter but a motorcycle.$7.00 for a 24hr period. Auto tranny which is weird and the rear brake is the left hand lever. Not as many on the road but it does take some nerve to drive through intersections. It isn't exactly chicken but someone decides who has the right of way or you just move over and let them in. It was fun to get out into the countryside however 30=40 kph was the norm and the occasional 60 kph when there was clear site and a straight road. I almost launched Jane off the back over an unmarked speed bump when I was looking a bus and trying to figure out was it going to pass the oncoming car.
It felt good just to be on a bike.
