There's also a "U" rating so please respect this. Newbies can also say "hello" here too.

Default ¡Hola! from an envious American

Greetings!

Sarge here weighing in from the breadbasket of the US of A. I'm a cop in the States and have owned, oh, 15 or so bikes in the last 20 years of riding. I'm on my second SV. Bigger isn't always better...

Anyway, I've always been a huge fan of the UK bike scene. I'm a regular reader of BIKE magazine, the finest moto-rag in all the world. IoM is my dream race (to attend, not to participate in! - ). I'd trade the cruiser heavy US bike culture for you boys' environment any day.

Looking forward to chiming in here and there, engaging in a little bit of natter (do I have the vernacular down? - ) and sharing a few thoughts and ideas about the bikes we share a passion for.

Cheers!

Sarge

Greeting, I'll move your thread to the right place as it's your first time here.

Cheers Mark.
