It's good to see you back Mr Blue.

Re: Hello - newbiee (ish) here
 

welcome back mate, was it cold outside? Ok i'll ask, what did you get banned for?, changing thread titles? ;)
yeah, nice vid with the gixer thou, sure i've seen it befor though, mebe when looking at sv vids.

Re: Hello - newbiee (ish) here
 

Right to try and answer all questions in one hit!

First off, thanks for the warm re-welcome, very nice thanx :grouphug:

Secondly, I enjoyed making the vids, so it is good others are getting pleasure from watching them (I like re-watching them as it is a bit of a scrapbook for me and I can re-imagine myself in the saddle!! :)).

What am I up to? I guess pretty much the same as a couple of years ago ... is that sad or cool!?!? :D

I have really got into off-road now mind - started off with an MX bike (YZ125), not sure that was for me (riding round scared!!) so got a trials bike ... not enough time in the saddle with that - too much walking around eyeing up the section and not physically in the saddle ... then finally got into green laning on enduro bikes, which has a heady mix of adventure, freedom to go when/where you choose (i.e. you don't need a specific 'event' to go riding, not you can ride anywhere!).

So yeah, never really felt the need to change my road SV for anything else as it did and still does all I need it to do. :smt023 My 2 trackbikes remain the same too, just don't really use them at the mo, which is a shame :smt087 ... I am sure I'll do trackdays in the future, but more into this off-road stuff at the mo.

As for why I got banned from the .org? Probably best not to dwell/talk to much about that, but it is safe to say it was totally unjust ... but then all say that don't they?!!? :D

No far worse, not describing his threads properly in the first place:rolleyes:

Re: Hello - newbiee (ish) here
 

Hey Dude, welcome (again).
Im into green laning also, i got a DRZ400 which i absolutely love :p.

Only watched the gixxer 1000 vid atm but you sir can ride a bike :)
You was destroying most in the corners no problem, albeit he did fook off on the straights, that thing went.
Bet he was well p1ssed off with you up his trumpet on every corner :(.

I will watch the rest tomorrow, but well impressed.

I'm inclined to agree. Lets not rake / drag that up all over again. Fresh start and all that.

Welcome back BTW.

Re: Hello - newbiee (ish) here
 

Cool, if you have a dig around my youtube account, there are plenty of 'muddy fun' vids on there too!! :riding:

yeah, it is VERY rewarding making it all up the hard way ... the guy actually enjoyed it too I think (as you can see, there was noone else out there mounting any sort of challenge on him) he gave me a thumbs up/nod of appreciation when the session ended - so, although it might have not been so good for his ego, he certainly enjoyed the challenge (as did I)! :smt023

Re: Hello - newbiee (ish) here
 

I'm glad you're back, I can now knock of the tw4t persona you asked me to adopt on your behalf when you left.

Have a good stay.
