Newbie Hello

Post by Ojafs »

Hi everyone,

Joined this site after a recommendation ;)

49 nearly 50 year old, newly divorced (again) and getting back into biking.
Recently moved to live in Teignmouth and just bought an old banger KLE 650, hoping to increase the miles greatly with a bit of touring around our beautiful isles when all aspects of lockdown have been lifted.

Hope to get on some local rides to in the not too distant future as well.

All the best and stay safe.

Jason

Hi Jason, welcome to the forum. I'm in Teignmouth too.

Plenty on here to keep you occupied, may even be some rideouts coming up too (depending on what sense comes out of Downing Street going forward).
