I agree guys - got soaked yesterday X2 going to work and back and again this morning, just tonights trip home to look forward too. Perhaps in a week or two if the showers let up?

Well - A easy place to meet me would be Sainsbury's at the Pen Inn Roundabout or even at Trago, just off the A38.

There are a couple of good cafe's in the area if the weather is good'ish.

Well if anyone is up for it for a couple of hours - would love to do longer but the ball and chain might complain a tad too much!

My mobile is 07595 587563

Anyone up for a few hours ride on Sat Morning? Perhaps a 9ish start, RV somewhere in Torbay / Newton area and a stop off for an early brunch?

I'm only a novice but fancy a bit of a short ride out to loose the cherry.

Girls & Guys, I'd like to come along on this if there is space for another newbie. Will be leaving from Newton so perhaps an RV at Penn Inn as well? Let me know. Thanks JP everyone is welcome on this run, but your bike has to be able to do the speed limit I recon an '08' plate bandit 1250 shoul...

Sounds like a great trip. Im very interested and could probably convince the other half - however she is a 1/2 veggie and only eats fish.....I know thats picky but could her dietry 'requirements' be accomodated?

Well, I have been out on it for a week now - and its brilliant! Got to say it's blinking cold riding to and from work daily with no heated grips but that will be next on my wish list.

Thanks Guys...what I actually failed to say is that when I was 17 I lived abroad and had a GS1000G. ..... so its been more of a big gap to riding than never had a bike before. Used to do a lot of Motocross / Enduro as well - my last bike was a Maco 490....which was scary

Good luck with the test. Jed (Two Wheels Training) is a sound bloke and I really reccomend him ( well I would as he got me through my test!)

Age is a good thiing ..., the 650 fully comp was only £168 and the 1250 is £246. Not that bad as its my main transport.

Hi Guys (& Girls). Just started biking 6 weeks ago at the tender age of 38. Did a 1.5 day access course at had my test in Exeter which I passed. Got myself a Bandit 650 and its a fantastic bike, but being closer to the 20 stone limit found it a bit sluggish. Been out and got an '08' plate bandit...
