New rider!
 

Elo! :)

Thought i'd best say hello :) I'm new to biking, just passed my test in mid december and was straight out and got an sv650... nearly finished the 600mile break-in already. I have a habit of throwing myself in at the deep end... novice rider, new bike, in not exactly ideal road conditions ;)

I'm basically lookin to get out any day the weather's at least semi-forgiving and I've never ridden with anyone before... So i'll keep my eyes peeled on here for any meetings coming up and hopefully I can join in :)

Cheers!

Adam.

HI Bad Dog

Have fun and enjoy yourself ;)


Just take it easy on the roads - they are greasy from the sludgy salt.

May be over there soon meself, maybe for a long stay maybe for a short stay :)

Re: New rider!
 

Yea, i've noticed - have to keep cleaning the bike too, but it's just so hard to keep off it! Just been taking it nice and easy on the roundabouts and corners... did get one bone-dry day last week tho, it was awesome :D

I take it there aren't many get-togethers this time of year?

Greetings again Bad Dog. the more winter miles you ride the better you will be when the summer comes-a tarmac god no less.
Thanks Yvonne for the bike racing list. Looking forward to all those great days out.
Tom:D

Re: New rider!
 

No probs Tom. Probably should be a thread on its own although not everyone is interested in racing.

Cheers Yvonne
