Hello everyone just wanted to introduce myself as I'm new!
My names Pat from around Bury Saint Edmunds, Suffolk. 20 years old, just passed my test and bought a k5 sv650s, which has to be restricted, sucks

Hi and welcome, great bike, enjoy (but not too much, the new driver act is not a nice thing!)

If you fancy a meet up keep a look out for a thread, it's getting closer to the time of year for the March meat run. More will be revealed later but we end up doing a ride out meeting at Red Lodge and hitting some nice roads before stopping in a remote pub for a meat raffle...

Haha sounds like a laugh, i'm only 4 miles from Red Lodge so i'll be up for that ! May I ask.. Why meat? lol

Random thing I think, I am too new to the site to have experienced the first meat raffle, I think it was discovered per chance and is now a yearly fixture...it don't cost anything, just a coffee or 2 in the pub

If you look in some of the older threads in this section you may find previous march meat run threads...the route is normally very good

Hello, you're ideally placed for a lot of the ride outs

If we do any that is!

We need the sun gods to do a bit of overtime this year

Pat

Hi Pat if you're eager to get some miles under your belt, I'm usually up for a ride anytime, I'm less weather phobic than most and only 15 miles from Red Lodge if you fancy a rideout to anywhere just post a date and start time and if I'm not working I'm there! When the evenings get a bit lighter post work midweek bimbles to the coast are a must!

Thanks alot thunder : ) .

Just getting all my riding gear, insurance and restrictor sorted out atm so i'll soon be on the road! Dam riding clothes are hard to find for a 6 foot 7 guy lol, Finally bought some rst textile trousers and size 13/14 boots, must have tried on 10+ leathers to no avail - I guess us freaky long people arn't to wear leathers!
