Default No more riding - for a few years anyway

So, my powered two-wheeled days are at an end, for the next few years at least.

I haven't used the bike since I tore my shoulder (non-bike related injury) in the spring, which saw me laid off work for almost 4 months and physically unable to ride. Now, I've agreed to not ride, as I'm six months pregnant with a baby boy due in March.

When I return to work properly (I'm doing office duties at the mo) in around 13 months, I'll be needing to commute by car, so the bike just ins't going to be used.

I'm planning on selling it, and my givi rack, and topbox (separate), when I get round to it. So if anyone's interested in an 11 year old much 'loved' SV (only two previous owners, one careful ), let me know.

Phil and I hope to make the Xmas bash, but it depends if miniature decides to turn up early I'm due on 12th March). Anyhow, I hope to be there, you'll spot me, I'll be the one waddling.

Jo

Congrats. If miniature arrives a day late it will be on my daughter's 19th birthday.
