Name: Stacey Thomas

Height: 165 cm

Stacey is a second year university at Massey University. She is looking to major in journalism and is currently a part of the writing team for the universities weekly newspaper ‘The Chron.’ She has found this writing experience very valuable in her pursuit to one day report for a national firm.

Stacey usually writes about the local food outlets around the city and because of this she has to do a lot of commuting. She started off riding a scooter and found that it was sufficient in catering to her basic needs of getting to a destination relatively quickly and easily. But as her writing assignments took her further away from university and the city; having to travel on the motorway at times, she needed something a little more powerful.

Stacey currently rides the Honda CBR125R and finds it very convenient to travel to the outskirts of the city centre and beyond. The extra power and acceleration she has in comparison to her scooter, has meant she feels more confident and safer when having to travel in dense traffic or on the motorway. The relatively light weight of the bike (128kg) has also meant that she doesn’t feel too intimidated by it, she still feels in control. Her investigative commuting has led her to stumble upon some very interesting dining destinations and thus has added fresh inspiration into her article writing. This has transferred into Stacey’s other work also and she has utilised her travels to spark creativity.

Stacey checks her tyre pressure regularly when she has to fill up but her motorbike knowledge doesn’t extend much further than that, she is simply not interested in how it works but only in actually using it. If she has any problems with the bike, which she has not experienced thus far with the CBR125R, she calls her uncle to come have a look at it. Uncle Stan is a mechanic, who works for City Auto Repairs and is very fluent in the running of a motorbike. He is always happy to help out Stacey with any problems she has and takes pride in seeing his niece riding a bike.

Stacey is looking to further her career in journalism and realises that travel will be large apart of this. For now her CBR125R is effective in doing what she wants in terms of commuting, which mean she will probably use this for the remainder of her time at university. After this she will likely move onto a car as her main source of transportation, the main advantages of being able to commute with other people in her field and travelling intercity effortlessly.
