Hi all
« on: 10.02. 2016 09:26 »
Greetings to everyone.
I have been reading with great interest for some time now and I have decided to become an active member.
I hope I may have something to offer as I have learnt so much from the forum.
At the  moment recovering from a broken foot thanks to the Super Rocket (non) starting technique.
Right in the middle of riding season!! Gutted.
Kind regards to all and anticipating many a robust debate in the future.
Hadrian.

Melbourne.

Welcome the forum, Hadrian. Broken foot from kickover? That sounds like some seriously advanced timing. Need I say, "Looking forward to some photos." *welcome*

Hadrian welcome , always worth sticking on the outside of a forum for a few weeks to find out what kind of nutte...err members are on it . In this case what you've seen is what you'll get, in spades ! they are a great bunch of people and the more members = more knowledge etc so everyone wins , enjoy, Bob.

Indeed. Some years we don't really seem to get a riding season at all.
