Curious!
 
Been lurking and contributing now for several months, never really introduced myself!

Anyway just curious about something! I love the forum and the fact that I have met people who are (as my wife puts it) as anal about bikes as I am! :lol:

So I was wondering, what is it that people tune in here for? :?:

For me it's about camaraderie, having a laugh, being forced to think once in a while and generally having fun. :twisted:

I'd love to know your excuses 8)

By the way my intro is......I'm 35, married, been riding (legally) for 6 years, sold the ZX6R for an SV (out of the 10 bikes I've had in the past 6 years my wife thinks it's the sane option), nurse specialist, father of 1 four month old son and lover of the forum.

Thanks folks......... :D

the help & advice is top :thumbsup: im newish to to road bikes & computers so some of my questions must seem stupid but the help i have recived is simply 2nd to none..

everyone is freindy & willing to help......the freindly banter is great(i got banned from trails uk forum for my simply telling some one they should not have bought a gas gas pro cos they are crap)

you can say what you want here(with in reason)

& then when you meat the peeps in real life they are twice as cool
:wink:

any thats my opinion :grouphug: :kiss: :smt058 :grouphug:

i am a member of a few other forums..but this is the best...95% of my forum time is spent here i will stay loyal to the org..until i get banned....then i will join in another name

LOL

I'm here becasue firstly, I wanted an SV and these guys helped me out alot, telling me what to look out for, what to avoid, what I should be paying. I continued to stay because I found the people on here gave me good advice for whatever reason, and are genrally 1,000,000,000 times more welcoming and freindly than most people on the MCN forums - I've never even been bullied for owning a scooter! There are no fights here (well, I've never seen any) and everyone respects each other (within reason :wink: ). I brought my SV of a guy who used to post here (I guess he dosnt anymore!) so since I'm an SV owner, I'll stick around for longer.

However, the jokes are really bad :roll: :oops: SO thats a downside. Come hovi5, find some decent ones!!!!!!

So yea, bloody good forum
