Relative newbie

[getyerkneedown]

Hi all,

cantgetmykneedown here, formerlly getyerkneedown.

Now, before people get upset, i want to explain why i'm here.

As you're aware, my previous tenancy here wasnt the happiest of times, and i said many things which i now regret ever having posted. I paid the ultimate price for saying them, and was removed from the site. Something i accept was just.

That was 2 years ago.

I'm not here to rock the boat, and if my presence here has that affect, then i shall willingly remove myself from the .org without any fuss.

I'm here to try and bury the hatchet of yester-year. As some of you may recall, toward the end of '05, my attitude on the roads landed me with a significant ban. That ban is now coming to it's close, and once again i'm looking at returning to the roads.

I am indeed a reformed character, no stupid acts, no speeding, no running the gauntlet for cheap thrills... the last 2 years have made me realise just how much i value my license, and i do not ever intend to jeprodise it again. Furthermore, reading back over some of the comments i posted, i can clearly see why my presence was annoying and tiresome to some on here. I guess one could say i'm matured significantly since then.

My vehicle of choice to make my return to the roads, the SV. As a previous owner of an SV, i found the .org to be an invaluable resource. Hence why i find myself here.

I hope that my offer of the olive branch will be accepted, and if not, as i say, i will leave the site if that is so desired.

I'm sincerely sorry for my comments back in May 06, and for my general demeanour prior to that.

Respectfully,

Joe.

Hello Joe!! Welcome back:p

Ed me old boy, how you doing?

Hope life in the legal profession is treating you well?

Thanks to everyone who remembers me of old, and has been so welcoming.... it's nice to be back.

Read with horror in the fallen friends section that the org had lost another fine young member though. :(

[Alpinestarhero]

Welcome back. Here's your room, just how we left it; can you please do something about all these used knee-sliders and clear away those magazines!!!!

So

your reformed eh?

You're a more considerate, road-biased rider huh?

PMSL - Matt, i think we should form the top box appreciation society mate - no one else seems to love them enough ;). It may not be as cool as the SV CBR club, but we can fit more beer and sanwiches in a top box than under the seat of a CBR!

YES!!! You're right. Without my topbox, my recent easter trip to brighton with maria could not have been possible.

I dont drink beer, so it dosnt go under my topbox, but the amount of food and fizzy drink :D brands hatch has never been so great!!!!! Good racing, excellent food, and alot cheaper than the crap from the outlets at brands

Matt

[cuffy]

WB, like many others have said it took some balls to right that apology and recognise the error of your ways.

[plowsie]

Dont know you weren'tt a member back then, but from the look of your first post and the posts later, it took a lot to write that so you got my respect. Welcome to the madhouse :D
