New Member in Yeovil

Post by Leigh82 »

Hi gang, I've just returned to biking after passing my test approx 10 years ago. I've owned my 06 ZX6R 636 for just over a week now and loving it. Met some nice people from the SW bikers forum at a bikesafe event last Sunday so here I am!

Would be interested to hear about any ride outs/meets happening in the Yeovil area when the weather gets a bit better!

Hi Leigh..(I was the other Lee at the course) ;)
Welcome to the forum, shame about the pants weather, but it does make us appreciate it when it is dry and sunny :-bd
Shame you didn't join before the weekend as there was a ride-out from Yeovil on Sunday (pics in the gallery courtesy of Smiler) :ymapplause:
I'm sure it won't be long before the next one though..soon as the roads dry up :D
If you are heading out, even for an evening bimble...post it up in the forum (I'm only 20 mins from Yeovil, and there's plenty of other members up this way too).
I refuse to enter into a battle of wits against someone who is unarmed.

It's better to remain silent and be thought of as a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt.

Thanks for the welcome guys (and girl). Hope to join in on a ride out soon. The forecast isn't looking too clever this week, so my bike will be tucked up in the garage for the time being :(

Bring on the summer :ymhug:
