Just Joined KB (Lil_Byte)

[Lil_Byte]

Just saying hello - from the Deepish South.

The weather is getting better here and the ice is off the roads so the bike is getting dusted off again.

I ride a Suzuki GS1200ss after selling my GSX1100R to buy a house.

Started riding again, about 4 years ago, after a 20 year break. Enjoying it very muchly but finding the knees don't work as well as they used to when I was 20 something years younger. :Punk:

i hear that glucosamine works wonders for sport bike knees.
dad couldnt ride anything sporty, but after 3 months on the glucosamine he was riding a cbr1000

[sexy beast]

welcome brother. good to have you on board. Congrats on the new house.

[Blackbird]

A warm welcome from up north. I had a 10-15 year layoff when the kids were little so you're in good company. I found out that my knees weren't in great shape either when I switched from the BMW to the Blackbird but a few exercises and regular dollops of glucosamine as Kiwifruit correctly points out has made quite a bit of diffference.

Enjoy the site! :rockon:

[Lil_Byte]

Sounds like I will have to find some of that Gluca stuff. Might be helpful:scooter:

[blacksheep]

greetings,just had a 15 year break from bikes myself,can't imagine giving them up in a hurry now though:niceone:

Hi Lil_byte

Kinda said Hi in your other thread, but this is the more formal "greetings, and I hope you enjoy your time here..."

There are just too many IT sorts in here. I am part of a team of four and have been developing a distributed db in Access :dodge: (pushing limits with 120k loc 200ish tables etc) but have started the process of redeveloping it in .NET. Anyhow, welcome along.

Wot he sed. (Didn't understand half of it but then that's Jimmy/Silage for you)

Good to see another Otago man on the site:yes:
Ya going to Pissed Penguin?

[Lil_Byte]

Have never been to a rally yet and want to find a nice one to break me in gently (maybe the pissed penguin, will have to look at the dates) - have just ridden on my own for fun.

Looking forward to getting together in a group.:scooter:
