Hello Everyone

12-04-2011, 07:58 PM

My name is Paul, I am 50 years old and I have rode many different bikes over the last 25+ years, mainly jap bikes. I have just bought my first Ducati ( Monster S2R 800cc), I am also quite new to the computer, I did write a Hello introduction two days ago but after I pressed Enter the message disappeared, I still havent found it !!, I wanted to join to meet new freinds and learn more about the Ducatis, I look forward to hearing and meeting some of you.

Out of interest did you buy a black one with a red stripe down the middle?

Welcome mate and just acroos the water. You can join us in Kent but we are aiming to ride Essex some time. Oh and the speedway @ lakeside.

welcome mate. Lots of active members in the London/Kent/Essex area so keep an eye here for any meets.

The London meet is usually the 1st weekend of the month in the Docklands, Kent meet is 2nd Sunday of the month near Maidstone (although it does change). Also, the tunnel run through London the day after the Royal wedding might be of interest if you like making noise!

Welcome to the club. We're really very active so once you've figured out how to work things keep an eye on the forum for meetings and activities that are going on, depending on how far you want to ride to meet up.

Any advice you need, just ask.

Great to hear from all of you, my bike is red with a white stripe, I have just got to get used to the computer now and work out the correct way of using the site.

J.P · 13-04-2011, 09:40 AM

If you need any help with that, we're happy to point you in the right direction on the site.
