New arrival to site.

Post by greybiker »

Hello, I have just joined the site and hope to use it a lot. I will be 60 this year and have been riding bikes on and off since passing my test at 16 ! Seems a long time ago 44 years. Anyway I don't feel a lot different than I did when I passed, honestly !!!
I have a Triumph Street Triple R which I think is brilliant. Previously I had a Daytona 675 for 3 years and a Honda VFR 750 for several years (J Reg), both were good bikes.
I have a mate at South Brent who like myself, endevours to be out on his Dragstar as much as he can. I live in Crediton, Devon.
I read about "Southwestbikers.com" in this months ride magazine from an article on Honda CB500S by a guy who rode out on a Sunday morning with this site.
Anyway wait to hear from you lads !
Greybiker. B-)

Hi and welcome to the site.
Would you mind print up what was said about us? 1 CB500 rider particularly comes to mind, but I haven’t seen him here recently.
Thanks
Layne

I didn't think he got banned, I thought he just decided to not stop at a junction and get off.

Thanks for the welcome all. How do I find out about the rideouts ? I will have a look around on the site, but any dates and locations would be good. 8)
