First "long" ride

Took my bike out on Monday for my first real ride. Rode about thirty miles away. B/f and I went to lunch. Got my bike up to about 47. That is pretty fast for me. Got a little scared on the way home. Going thru a curve and an 18 wheeler was coming the other way......thought I was going to get run over by all 18 wheels....but I did fine. I even got my first biker wave. It was pretty cool.
Still a little gunshy about going fast and making turns, but each time I get on my bike I feel I am making progress and building my confidence.
