Hi from Exeter

[SWTH]

Hi folks, thought I'd join in the fun and games!

Just got back into biking (had a DT50MX when I was 16), has to be said doing my DAS and getting back onto two wheels is bloody great

I'm based in Exeter when I'm working, hopefully see some of you around.

Cheers,

Scott

hi scott, welcom to swb.

what ya riding ?


see there are some rideouts coming up in the rideout section.

[SWTH]

This:


Honda Varadero 125 V5

And this:

I bought the Vara to learn on for six months but I like it so much I decided to keep it!

Hi Scott and welcome. Also in Exeter

[billinom8s]

ooo, you'll get some friends on here on the the big trumpet.


get your name don for the jennycliffe run on sunday, you'll love it.

[SWTH]

Cheers for the welcome folks!

Fraid I'm working Sunday, I'm dropping by Bridge tomorrow morning though as they have a Triumph dealer event on.

[billinom8s]

so do you plan to tour on the bike (German or French trtips planned), out to play (Welsh trip planned) or just be silly(Run to the Bun)?

have a look in the rideout section and fill your boots.

I will do some distance on the ST, trips to North Wales especially. A big part of why I went for it though is because it fits me - I didn't want an adventure-style bike as I already have that with the Vara, but being 6' 6" means bike choice is limited. The ST felt right from the moment I sat on one, and riding it is very comfortable.

[billinom8s]

get your name down for the run to the bun then - you'll enjoy that - honest

[SWTH]

Bah. I'm in North Wales that weekend. Mind you, the roads in Snowdonia certainly make up for it...
