Biking as a decision in life

I always thought a knee trembler

at 50 'mph' would be world first, trouble is I couldn't get a partner. Why I ride a Guzzi it's the next best thing.

I still think it's do'able so if you hotshots want to make a name for ya'self.

I started because I jumped on the back of a bike and found that road riding was fun/economical/fast after some off roading.

So I thought, why save my money when I'm 18y.o. Why not spend my money (defo no debt though) and have fun now?
Have as much fun as poss while I'm at school and Uni, then save once I'm earning to get a house and support a family.

So here I am, having a hell of a lot of fun too!

I started with a mini dirt bike when I was about 8. On the road at 15. Oh and driving a cage with a helmet on looks stupid. It was love right from the word go.

Never had a choice,once the old girl moved out the old man moved a 650ss Norton into the lounge and so began my love affair with motorcycles,hand polishing cases sucked though.

Finn. He is from Finland. Finland is a country in top of Europe. A Scandinavian country. Gave us Nokia. And if he had the support Hamilton gets he would have the points...
