    First bike, first road ride.

    Hey all,

    Bought myself a 2nd hand GT250R today (thanks Greg btw for making it an easy trade) and had a blast on the way back from Paraparaumu to Lower Hutt, was a bit nervous beforehand but had a lot of fun.

    Anyway thought I'd better introduce myself as I'm sure I'm going to have a lot of questions in the coming few months and would be keen for some mentoring from more experienced riders and/or general socialising/riding with others.

    Cheers,

    Luke
