Hi All
« on: December 17, 2011, 09:29:39 PM »
Just registered, didn't even realise a Welsh Biker's forum existed  :oops

Been on the road for 3 years, only on L's though (thanks to the cost involved in getting the licence) but had the priviledge of riding some bigger bikes during that time.

I started off on a Suzuki Burgman 125 ( 06 Reg), before moving to a heavier Pioneer Nevada 125 (10 plate, but chinese).

I am now the proud owner of a Honda CG, but this one is from 1981 and is a bit of a monster, pull off too fast and you are on one wheel .... She can easily do the clock, and still keep going - Only once did I try this, and it scared the living daylights out of me, such a light bike and at those speeds, It is suicidal.

I am still in the process of trying to get her restored and through the MOT, but I am off the road myself at the moment thanks to unforseen circumstances - With any luck I shall be back on the road in time for Febuary, assuming the Hospital don't get involved!

I am also a DJ, creating my own mixes, along with being an Ambulance Assistant (Volunteer), best of both worlds :D

Oh, and Hi  :thumbsup

Welcome to THE forum.

Biking isn't dangerous.... But there's some crazy folk on here to keep you on your toes.

Welcome.

Thanks for the welcome!

Biking isn't dangerous, but other *road users* are, I learnt that after being flung from the bike and head first into a brick wall at 40mph - Split the helmet in half, ripped open my tex bike trouser and jacket, damaged the rotorcuff in shoulder, had nerve damage to both sides of lower back and also whiplash .... Could have been worse though.

Helloooo  :thumb_up
Bikes don't leak oil',.... they mark their territory :o)           Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight. Growing old is manditory... but growing up...well that my friends...is OPTIONAL!
