Literally blown away by what I just experienced. Going up the hill at the legendary Goodwood Festival of Speed on the new electric @harleydavidson_uk Livewire was out of this world 🚀
I’ve got to admit I was shitting myself.
I’d never ridden in full leathers before✔️Never ridden the bike before ✔️ Never ridden an electric bike before ✔️Ok, now go do it in front of thousands of people ✔️ and on a track you’ve never ridden before ✔️ Eeeeeeek! But thanks to the amazing team and a little bit of kit loan (thanks @stockwell__design and @bell_powersports ) I shoved the fear way down in my boots and the second I crossed the start line of couldn’t stop laughing inside my helmet about how incredible this bike and this experience was. When I finally got back down the hill my face was aching 🤣 It just shows that sometimes you just gotta get on with it even if it scares the shit out of you as you might just be missing out on one of the best rides of your life 😊
Coming out of the drivers lounge later on, after meeting some of my absolute hero’s in the changing rooms @20thcenturyracing @mariacostellombe @jennytinmouth @motorshellninja @abbieeaton44 , my little boy was walking around wearing my helmet. A guy walking by said “he looks like he loves wearing daddy’s helmet”. I said “don’t you mean his mama’s helmet?” Proud moment sealed and locked in forever. 😊
A massive thanks to the team @harleydavidson_uk for letting me be only the 5th person outside of @harleydavidson to officially ride this animal and thanks for letting me bring my little family along for the ride ⚡️✌️
I can honestly say that this bike is incredible and the power delivery is phenomenal. If you are lucky enough to get a chance to ride one do it. It will knock your socks off. ⚡️🚀 Check out the video below for what I thought about the bike and about the future of electric!
