Hey guys just joined last week and am finding my way round at the moment.
Got my full liscence and a bike over summer. Loving riding and ride almost every day. No doubt ill see some of you guys up the hills and whatnot.
Real good resources and tips from what i have seen so far. I am looking forward to getting along for a few mid winter rides with some people.

Good thing about winter riding is......... you wake up...yeah the sun at last. Quick coffe, bike out, we are off, 50 km up the road it's pissing down, i mean your view is a white sheet, you are two up, 5km to the nearest shelter, you get there and its stops, and where did that wind come from?... all good fun
Welcome and enjoy it, nothing beats it.......:headbang:

Welcome to the site, no doubt we'll see you around. Keep an eye out for a sedately ridden GSXR1000 with a onearmed rider, that'll be me......honestly.....

Thats all well and good if you dont have a couple of 8am classes that you 'cant' miss. For people like me who are unable to wait till positive numbers we have to grin and bear until we get to uni where we can warm the digits by playing with balls... in crowded lecture theatre (takes the full 50 minutes). Then by the time classes and work is finished for the day negative numbers again till i get home... and let someone else play with balls...
Wouldnt have it any other way... I LOVE RIDING
