It’s Official – I Got A Motorcycle & License

By DARREN ALFF on February 2, 2010

After spending 9 months in Europe and seeing thousands of people zip around in all sizes of motorcycles and mopeds, I finally decided to get a two-wheeled motorized vehicle for myself.

In October of 2009 I purchased a Kawasaki KLR 650 Dual Sport Motorcycle (shown above) and had it delivered to me from the neighboring state of Colorado. In November I took and passed the State of Utah’s Motorcycle Training Course. And just a few days ago I received my new drivers license with a class “M” motorcycle endorsement – meaning that I can now legally drive a motorcycle!

Unfortunately, the motorcycle is in storage at the moment, as it is currently below freezing outside with about three feet of snow on the ground. But as soon as spring rolls around I’ll be out there on the streets, exploring the great state of Utah and it’s neighboring areas.
