So I log on for the first time and it suggests I make a post and tell you a bit about me. Okay that's it - here I am.
Was a biker "back in the day" - built up a 1953 BSA 125 when I was 12, sold it and it took me 24 years to get another bike. Im in the middle of a Cafe build on an old Honda CB125 (inspired by http://www.caferacer.net/hcostello_cb125.html)
Got the wheels off being done this week and hoping to start the assembly process shortly with a view to have a sweet summer ride. In the meantime the Mrs and I are cruisng the streets on a nice little Vespa LX150 - okay okay not a real bike I know, but it'll do 105km all day long and it's a hit with the ladies. Do I need anything more?Anyway, I will keep you all up to date with the progress on my Cafe and look forward to catching up soon.

Welcome aboard.
Re the vespa.I pulled up at the lights beside a guy and girl on one today.They were laughing and hooting until they noticed me and then went all shamefaced.I don't know why as I was quite envious of the good time they were having.
