Hi, I'm new here too...

HI

I have just bought my first Monster, an S2R 1000, and I am looking forward to getting out and about on it a lot when it gets here tomorrow. I have always wanted to take a suitable bike to where I once went in Switzerland and Northern Italy (Mennagio on Lake Como), and now I have the opportunity.

I live in North Staffs and will be commuting to work on it as well, as I have decided to totally ditch the car altogether, so I sold it, although I will probably get a cheap old banger to get me to work when there is some snow and ice around.

Anyways, it is good to be here!

Regards

Simon

Welcome to the site. I think you'll find that there are a few S2Rs knocking about in Staffordshire.

Hi There,

I am a PADI MSDT dive instructor, and did a 6 month stint in Koh Tao, Thailand last year teaching. Thanks to all of you that have welcomed me to the forum too, looks like a good place to me.

I didn't like the white striope when I first saw the Monsters a few years ago, but oif course now that I own one, I am fine with that!!

Sounds like a tough job

I'm PADI Advanced but haven't been down for nearly 8 years (oo-err misses). I learnt in Saudi with the reef sharks, dived in the Maldives, Antigua, Mauritius and the great barrier. Should get back into it really (will def need a refresher course or two) but not much diving to be had here in the Loire Valley
