Default Hello i'm New

Hi all,

Just wanted to introduce myself.

I'm about to return to two wheels (in a couple of months) after have not been on one for about 10 years. Although I need to do my DAS first (any recommendation) but after doing a lot of research into the type of bike I want. I have decided it will be a SVS (Pointy).

As fo your meeting place not exactly a streching ride for me as i'm in South Woodham (At the moment anyway).

Oh and by the way i'm just the right side of 40 (only just though )

Dal

Hi Viney,

It's just a personal thing I prefer the styling. However, with this being my first proper bike I also want a reasonably late one just for reliability.

I wanna ride it not fix it

Welcome to the nuthouse mate !!

As for a decent school - Mrs. Vox used LINK at Chelmsford SEE HERE & passed first time out - having only ever ridden a slo-ped (her phrase !!) about 15 yrs earlier !!

BTW - I'm just the wrong side of 40

Hey Dal,

I'll back up the 'Vox totally! Did my DAS with 'em and passed first time as well. Very good instructers and good bikes (ER-5's). Watch out for Paul (ex-RSM, shouts alot bloody good bloke though)

Oh, can't beat a pointy - especially in blue!!!!

See you down the barge

Hi..... another thumbs up for Link, passed with them first time, instructors are great blokes, very patient with idiot me wobbling through the cones etc...!

PS Curvy is the way to go, there's one for sale at John Pease in Chelmsford, although it is in yellow, looks nice but blue is faster.....
