Hey all

Hello! I've joined after a recommendation from Sprocket.
I've been riding for about 8 months, and currently I've got a good old reliable Honda CG125. I'm planning on doing direct access asap (read - after I've moved house and have some money again...) and then I plan to progress on to bigger, faster and shinier beasties
I'm really interested in joining rides out etc, especially around Exeter area, or a bit further out, or pretty much anywhere actually... Any excuse to ride somewhere

One of them was my first road bike too - in Tango Orange
- a great little bike for starting on, mine had done 90,000 miles when I sold it on
Welcome, get your test done and get out there

Thanks for the welcome people
I know, a 125 commuter ain't exactly got much in the way of balls, but I have managed to lean enough whilst cornering to scrape some peg off on the road (not much, it's only happened three times so far...) I see that as being a good indicator of my riding
I'll be moving house in a month, then as soon as I've scraped enough beans together I'm going for the direct access. I may not be able to afford a bigger bike for a couple of months after that, but I'm kind of hoping that some of you kind and very generous souls will let me experience the joys and wonders of your machines in the meantime... What can I say, I'm optimistic! ;)
