New in Northampton!

23-07-2016, 04:19 PM

Hey, just introducing myself to the people on here. I've been riding for 21 years and have had various Ducati's and Monsters, starting out on a Monster Dark 600 way back when, have had a 1098S and an 1000cc Monster Testerasetta (I'm not sure if I spelt that correctly)! In between and in my yoof, I've had all kinds of motorcycles, cruisers, sports bikes, even a purple chopper once and my first ever bike was a Honda CX500! Considering I'm 5' 4" and a dinky bird that lived on a steep hill that wasn't without its challenges! I once surfed it horizontally around a snowy corner! Stylish.

Anyway I digress. I'm learning my way around Northants as my hometown is Lincoln but I've been here for about 8 years now and can pretty much sort of navigate, after a fashion. I mostly follow the front wheel!

Hello and Welcome.

That's some impressive binage behind you. We're usually happy with a wheelie bin or 2.

See other threads ad nauseum...
