Richard Hammond has voiced his delight after going for his first motorcycle ride since his near fatal car crash in September.
The Top Gear presenter says he took a Honda Fireblade around the streets of London just days after being given the all clear to ride a gain by doctors.
He told Motorcycle News: "I just can't believe how good that was," although he admitted the first few minutes were "wobbly".
He went on to say: "It felt like a fantastic connection straight back to a time when I hadn't suffered a brain injury and life was a lot simpler."
"That's why I ride a bike. I can come out of a TV studio or the big meeting doing grown-up stuff - but the moment I get on a bike I'm exactly the same person I was 15 or 20 years ago."
"That ride, the quick wobbly ride with me looking like a nobber, just made me realise why I love bikes and just what I started riding for all those years ago.�
Good on you Hamster!
