Hello everyone
 

I thought it was about time I introduced myself to you all.

I've had some dealings with a few people regarding parts from my old bike.

My name is Adrian, I live in Aylesbury and work in Oxford. I've been riding bikes for 18 years and have never learnt to drive a box can't beat the buzz from bikes.

I plan to come along to the next meet, following WartHog and Philbut down but making sure I have plenty of stopping distance having seen the results of last weeks ride down!!:oops:

Now I need to decide whether I should change my user name or not? My options are to leave it as it is (it's only a handle), change to Rh1no (Rhino is already taken but that's nickname) or something else suggested by you guys

Re: Hello everyone
 

Hi & welcome :)

Fancy doing a track day? hehe..

And judging by my name, I can't give any advice on changing names ;)

Re: Hello everyone
 

I vote you change it to 'Rh1no or similar' ;-)

Welcome aboard mate, the more the merrier..

Re: Hello everyone
 

Welcome to the factory...do you like sausage?

I vote to change your name. Got nothing against aadeyc73 but it is a bit of a mouthful + I will never remember it + Rh1no is just plain better.

Re: Hello everyone
 

I wouldn't go round asking to many peeps that.. :p

Re: Hello everyone
 

I could definately be taken more than one way

Re: Hello everyone
 

True, rhino is easy, but just looking at the name again.. it's not too hard to remember really.... Ady-C

(although does that mean the 73 is a dead give away to the year Adrian was born or just the magical number to some lock combination.. hehe)

Re: Hello everyone
 

Hi Ady. Keep it. I don't think Ady is simple enough. Look forward to seeing next Tuesday. As fibble said, fancy a track day. The TVSF is having one on the 16th June. :cool:

Re: Hello everyone
 

Welcome.

Changing your name is overrated. :cool:

Re: Hello everyone
 

Bit too much information there for your first day but anyway! :eek:

Welcome Adey! Told you they were a nice bunch :). Adrian has kindly given me the speedo drive and cable from his old curvey which I will be attempting to fit tonight with Phil. For free too! Hopefully he can join us for the next Shire Horse meet.

Re: Hello everyone
 

We'll just let Phill ride in front! :lol:


By the way, keep the name, I feel extra special knowing it actually means Adey (or Ady). Just another one of the TVSF special little secrets! (just like I in no way look (or smell) like a warthog :D)

Re: Hello everyone
 

Hello! Now, enough about my lax stopping skills or I'll have YOUR number plate too :p heheh. I used to lve in Aylesbury too. In Bedgrove - nice :(. still, there are some nice technical roadsa baout near Wendover and Butlers cross.

Looking forward to meetin you mate :smt023

Re: Hello everyone
 

Oh crap you've figured out the complex code I'd better forge a new birth certificate and change the code to my safe, just in case someone tracks it down and manages to help the moths escape.:smt063

Re: Hello everyone
 

Hey Adrian, I just fitted the curvey speedo drive you gave me. It actually doesn't fit, but with a bit of bodging and filing, I got it to work. So thanks a lot buddy!

Re: Hello everyone
 

There's nothing wrong with Bedgrove better than where I am, 10 mins walk from the prison.

It'll be good to meet you all on tuesday and you'll be able to have a laugh at my quality riding, if you can see that far back;)

Re: Hello everyone
 

I'm glad you got it to work, you never now the bodge job might even improve the accuracy.

Re: Hello everyone
 

From experience, people who understate their own abilities regarding riding of motorcycles tend to lie. They are normally quite good. :lol:

I myself am a riding genius. Hell even only this morning I managed to scrape my crash bung. :wink:

Re: Hello everyone
 

Ape lies to. He probably scrapped it whilst riding on one wheel round the twisties and eating a continental breakfast all at the same time!

Re: Hello everyone
 

"And what's more, I usually only ride a dinky little 250!"

Re: Hello everyone
 

250's can't possibly keep up with sv650s!!


Oh.

Re: Hello everyone
 

Well the poll's now closed and with a votes tied I guess i'll keep the name as it is. Partly because I don't think I can change it anyway.

I was thinking about knocking the first 'a' off to make things easier so it a mod was able to do that for me it would be great.

Re: Hello everyone
 

You'll have to send a PM to either fizzwheel, admin or TSM to be able to get that done. Us mere mortal moderators don't possess such powers. :wink:

Re: Hello everyone
 

Demi-gods as they like to be called ;)

Re: Hello everyone
 

Your moderator mojo is weaker than I thought, old man.

Re: Hello everyone
 

I'm too weak and frail to retort.
