Smile Newbie from the east

Howdy

I'm an old skool petrol head from Peterborough, I've been riding bikes for around 17 years now. I'm pretty much addicted to anything with two wheels and I also like cars too.

I got into track days about 5 years ago and absolutely love it, my favourite UK circuit is Cadwell Park

I don't own an SV yet, but I love Suzuki's and I'm planning to get myself an SV next year and use it as a dedicated track bike or maybe even start racing it in the Mini Twins championship.

Looking forward to chatting and maybe even meeting some more fellow bike addicts

Searley

Thanks for the welcome guys

Would've liked to join you for chips, but I'm pretty much booked up until Xmas now so don't think I'll be able to make...

I appreciate the invite though

Welcome Searley. To make the world seem even smaller I'm often near to you in Sawtry because that's where my yard is.

Spooky. Anybody else on here from Sawtry?! I can't wait to get my SV now, sounds like there'll be plenty of locals to go on ride-outs with

What do you do in your yard, anything exciting?

My parents live in Sawtry. I visit from time to time but no longer own a road bike so just in the car.

SV's make great track bikes. I frequently get outdone by Binky on one and more recently Red Herring despite being on a more powerful bike.

Hope you enjoy it.
