newbie from the north east
hi guys,
my name is Chris and I'm from Scarborough, any one local ? I have a 03 sv650s.I've had my bike licence for just over a month and have loved every second of it, should have done it 10 years ago, even in the cold weather. I've been a member for a few weeks now and have been looking up a few thing mostly shock/fork improvement. looking forward to next summer hopefully will get to do a track day or two and enjoy the local roads.   cheers Chris Last edited by prisspringle; 22-11-13 at 07:04 PM.

Re: newbie from the north east
Me and SVGTI are from Bridlington. I only went to Olivers mount to watch racing within the past couple years. And yes, it will blow you away!!
Always good for a bimble around at the start / end of a ride! Especially when you start to commentate in your head whilst going round!

Re: newbie from the north east
You've got to go to Olivers!!! Racing at the most purist.
Being in Newcastle I've got the bet of all worlds

Hi Chris and welcome. Get PunyXpress to "guide" you round his fave roads, I loved the experience.
