Hello.
And greetings from Tewkesbury !
Why its taken so long to get here - I just don't know. From the age of 17 I've owned a black CB500/4 (1973 vintage). I'm restoring it slowly - probably just in time for it's 50th birthday. It was my 1st m/cycle, and at £350, cost me most of my first term's tech college's grant.
I also have a heavily modded (and very lightweight) 1999 Ducati 900ssie, and also a stock 1999 Suzuki Bandit (1200).
All very differant motorcycles, but all have a place/roll to play in life.
I'm married to Louise, and between us we have 3 children - David (31), Mark (30) and the youngest is Claire. We're also keen cyclists (the type you have to pedal), and probably pedal more miles than drive.
I will have a go at uploading some pics of m/bikes sometime, I'm sure to ask plenty of dumbo questions - so please make allowances, but I will try not to be too much of a chump.
I look forward to plenty of banter, receiving advice and if possible sharing tips I've learned over the past 39 years of owning m/bikes.
Cheers all.
