    Hey there guys and gals

    have just found out that my step dad is already a KB member. Check out his profile (Bruiser). Bike does not look like this at the moment!

    Heck and he only just joined KB as well... so when he gets home he will be able to really chat away with us all... :spudwave: :spudwave:

    But he can still ride his Virago thou (cos they are cool bikes - ok I am biased, as I also own one) when he is allowed to ride again, that is until his Harley is back on the road.......


    Bruiser - Get well soon and see you back on your bike real soon....

    Unhappy Would

    be able to ride the Virago if they still owned it. The accident gave his partner the shits so she has sold it back to the shop.

    Yea

    So do I. I was going to go for my learners this year but I am definitely having second thoughts. But as I said to hubbie today really doesn't make much difference whether rider or passenger in an accident.............................but still having second thoughts.

    So if you crash a car then you will give up driving?
