South West Bikers | Motorcycle Forum

Hello. Umm I would wave or grin or something but I seem to be incapable of using smilies.... Is it just me? Probably...

So. I have a bike, it has 2 wheels (no stabilisers), an exhaust that goes pop pop pop, a well used throttle, brakes (just), it is missing a spring, several screws too, & 1 crash bung, but otherwise all good.

Based in the north of Somerset -not North Somerset, just the north of just Somerset & get tons of bikers heading by at weekends (including that ride from Glastonbury last Sunday). Good watching. Wish I was capable of identifying bikes by sound though.

I'd love to join some rides sometime.

That enough for now? Make demands & I'll contemplate worthy answers ;)

well hello there , yep we try to ride but still manage to talk a fair bit too ;) !!

there are quite a few active members up your way so keep an eye on the ride out section and jump in when the fancy takes you!

Anyway welcome along to the site ...

Welcome

Hi there, umm, Fay is it ? And welcome in to Swb.

So come no then, after that tantalizing description of your bike, what is it ?????????

There are a couple of rides coming up but if nothing takes your fancy or fits in your diary, just post one up of your own.

Tomorrow, leaving Taunton at a sensible time...check rideouts threads!

Welcome along Fay, yes we do ride - on road, track and dirt!

Whatever you ride, come along to a meet up and say hi to some of the SWBers in your area

Hehe, not Fay, just a tipsy fairy....

Tomorrow's ride sounds do-able. Half hour boring whip down the m-way to Taunton (I'm not good at early morning's), at your mercy to West Bay, then some crazy B-roads back up.

I've got a gorgeous black with sparkly bits (important stuff first) ZX6R. Hence I tend to stay off dirt. Roads are great. Track, ummmmm, I'm not sure if it was me or the bike that was last on a track. Pembrey, Honda, oops (explains the missing bits on the bike.....).
I confess I've lost a bit of mojo since then which I'd love to get back. Apart from a trip to Hockenheim I haven't ridden too much since then although weather & other stuff going on has contributed to that too. I may have tested my brakes out with a sharp stop on the first ride after fixing it too, caught my foot on the peg & dropped it too *blush*.

I sound like a right useless nonce now don't I!!! Honestly, I can ride, I don't normally crash/fall off/drop bikes.

:-D

Nope, you sound just like many other SWBers on here!

See you tomorrow
