Default I'm getting back on 2 wheels!

Went for a test ride yesterday and suddenly remembered who I was after 7 months of amnesia

Going to put deposit down tomorrow afternoon, more info to follow shortly. In the meantime, it's blue & white, very fast and has it's picture in the dictionary under 'Awesomeness'.

If anyone would like to book me a trackday as an early christmas present please feel free to do so

I know the feeling, after 12 months with no proper biking I had to come back. Cold Turkey didn't work for me!!

VW vans are great, but you need the van for something else (camping at track days ) etc!!

Narp, thank you @ all guesses but it's one of these:


Y reg 750 with 28,000 on the clock... Took it for a ride yesterday. I didn't think anything could top me old SRAD but this thing makes me wonder what the L0 and L1's are like.. Will report back with moar info & pics tomorra.

Tim - pm coming your way shortly, was in brighton again last week so not had chance to get back to you properly.

Maria, she's already planning a few rides to whitby (on the back) but I'll see if I can give her a little nudge
