The new Honda 500's are brilliant all around bikes at a fair price.

Seems like you're having a mid-life crisis like me!
I was well into road cycling, especially Audaxing and did a Super Randonneur in 2013 (200km, 300km, 400km & 600km rides in one year).
I got a PCX in October 2013 and did my CBT on a geared bike, because we were down to one car and so I had the perfect excuse.
Through commuting every day 8 miles each way I was 1; getting fed up with drivers bugging me because of my L plates, 2; wanted a full licence so I could give my daughter a lift on it and 3; perhaps pick up something old to ride around and tinker with
Passed my Theory/Hazard test at the weekend and will do Practical early next year when weather warms up.
I work close to a Honda dealer so have been looking at stuff like Hornets, CBF500's & CB500F's. I'm 50 in 2016 so want to do something to mark it! I must add that I intend to ride it like a little old lady, I do like to get home at the end of the day!
Hope you're enjoying the PCX and keep it when you get that motorcycle.
You should have as many mid life criseses as possible...
Did I spell that correctly, looks awful?

Bugger. Crisises.
