Default Another new hello...

Newbie to this forum, thought follow Kilted Gingers example and introduce myself with a new thread......

Not quite a new to biking, but back after a 11 year stint of needing a car to earn pennies, but not quite earning enough to run a bike as well.

Stay in Harthill (no I'm not religious and not a football fan, I just needed a cheap house!).

Just bought a new K6. Cupar Motorcycles, MO couldn't match the price and frankly didn't seem like they wanted to. Done 1500 miles in the first two weeks, partly thanks to a trip to Skye.

My Skye (and rest of bloody Highlands) trip was 26th May with guys from work. It ****ed it down all weekend. Two days, 800 miles and 16 hours riding later we thoroughly agreed with Quedos....torture! Took the last two weeks on holiday for my hands and wrists to recover! Love to hear how you guys got on on the 17th.

So hello everybody, nice to (kind of) meet you. Would be interested in a rideout any time to meet properly, so give us a shout if your'e organising and I'll keep an eye on these posts.

Quedos; I would very much like to come but i see two obstacles, I will be very slow and wouldn't want to spoil it for anyone else. Cant get 600 mile service until July 11th and the way I'm going I'll be past that without a 150 mile ride on the 9th, (I dont know how important it is to not go over the 600 miles )

Default Thanks

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. Hope to see you on the 9th July rideout. My diary kind of splits between my brain and my wifes, at the moment I can't think of anything stopping me. I'll post a reply on the correct thread for it.

Don't worry about that, someone's got to be slowest...
