Biking
I passed the MSF riders course today... so now - once I get my license changed - I can legally ride a motorbike. 
I'm so chuffed, it's something I never got around to doing in the UK.
Now I just have to decide on a bike....

More of a sports bike man myself (or Crotch rocket as they are affectionately known).
This is my weekend toy:
As someone has already said make sure you wear full gear whenever you go on the roads. I know it's a tad warm down there but coming off a bike can hurt - and it's not what you do it's the others around you.
If you need any help/advice feel free to ask!

You're right - Miami doesn't have the roads for sports bikes.
What bike did you start out on?
