Tomorrow's the big day

Tomorrow (barring rain) I ride my scooter to work for the first time!

I got in some practice time yesterday and today. Yesterday was practicing getting out of and into the driveway and figuring out how best to park it in front of the house. My student worker, Heather, came over to help. Today was practicing the route my friend/co-worker, Hithia, takes to work. She led the way. My usual route is shorter, but on craptacular roads and crosses a busy street without a traffic signal. Her route is longer, smoother and less busy.

Each time I've had a ride scheduled (MSF class, practice in the neighborhood), I'm so nervous! I have butterflies and almost make myself sick. It starts hours before and lasts through donning my gear. I'm never nervous once I get going, though. I'm hoping the pre-ride jitters will pass once I get a few solo rides under my belt.
