A year has passed....

[Skip]

Amazing as it seems to me, but its been over a year since I first sat on an SV and decided that I wanted one - at that time I didnt even have a licence! Blimey, I can remember signing up to this forum and feeling guilty as I didnt have a bike or a licence!

Ended up buying Richie8458390485983905's Dads bike (cheers Lol! ) before I had ridden anything bigger than a CG125 and wondering if I had done the right thing after riding it around the lorry park, I remember thinking "This is waaaaay to powerful for me, I will never be able to ride it!" Passed in April and then had an awesome time over the summer taking in as many rideouts as possible and even doing a trackday!

Roll on summer 2006

No real reason for my post, just cant believe a year has passed!

you wait until it's over 30 years, where does the time go

Same for me.
Just over a year, signed up, no Bike.

Here, here, roll on the good weather.
Which hopefully shouldn't be that far away.

I want to get a bit more mileage under my belt this year.

Same here - I only managed 4000 last year (but they were all pleasure miles rather than commuting...)

Try doing a Euro tour to Le Mans or something. We're going to the French GP in May. It'll be my first time abroad on the bike so we're going with an organised trip.
