It started with a Garelli

It started for me a long while ago with a moped that took me to work 30miles a day for a year when i was 16; but the passion never faded it has just been tempered by family life.
my neighbour ( he rides a moto guzzi) heard me kicking over an old GS750 on the front lawn, popped his head around the tree just as it roared ito life after 12 years in the garage.
"what are you going to do with it he asked", "sell it my biking days are over", ( that was 7 years ago)
"dont sell it" he says "ride it". so i did and 7 years later i am still riding my 1200 Bandit that i bought from new, and have since added a SV1000 classic and my partner rides a Ducati 695.( welsh biker )
Hope to meet some of you for a ride out soon.
