Nothing like looking back at your early rides This was my MTX125. The cars were mum and dads before I had passed my car test.

I also had an MTX125 just like that.. and then 4 years later an MTX200.. which was nice, and of course I should have kept it!
Actually I'd like all of my old bikes back... :((
