Plymouth Biker!
Posted: May 16th, '16, 14:30
Hey,
I made a post in bike banter, and it was suggested that I come here and do a cheeky intro.
I'm Esqy and am in Plymouth.
Had a 50cc scooter about 13 years ago, followed by a 100cc scooter after the 1st one one got nicked.
Usual story - Learned to drive a car, so bikes fell by the wayside.
A couple of years back, the company I work for had need of a CBT person to move some Mopeds around, but none of the management had it, so I volunteered.
Fast forward about 6 months - I broke up with my girlfriend at the time, and what better way to get over it than to buy a bike!
I picked up a CBF125 and rode that for about 6 weeks. Headed into a local Motorbike school to get an 'Assessment' to see how many lessons I need for DAS, impulsively put a deposit down, and started the lessons about a fortnight after.
Passed with a couple of minors, and within a week bought a brand new Street Triple R - No regrets since.
I have a Youtube channel that I update very infrequently (I think I have like 3 videos up?). There will be more once I get a bit more confident in what I say (Opinions are terrible things to have on Youtube), and better at video editing.
Most rides end with an obligatory visit to Cap'n Jaspers, So I'm sure I may have seen a few of you janners around without realising it!
