I thought a gentle reminder would suffice

Re: I got my first bike - please help with my shopping list!

Well I've been like a little boy waiting for Christmas! I woke up at 1am, 1.30am, 3.15 am, couldn't sleep till 4am, slept till 6.30am, decided to go for a run and still can't get rid of this grin on my face, even if it is pissing it down and making me a little nervous!

Well if any of you are in Cheshire near Alderley Edge, I'm getting the bike at 4, then riding around just for fun until 7!! then my brother is proposing to his missus, so that will end the fun for a couple of hours :P

I'll also eb out allllllllll day tomorrow - again it's pissing it down!!! haha

Thanks all so much for the advice, I'm now insured, about to go nito town and buy a bike cover, lock & chain, waterproofs, rucksack and a back box! unless I can find one of those things Spree mentioned, but I can't be arsed to go all the way to Manchester for it :P

It's so so close, I've waited months for this day!

Andy

Re: I got my first bike - please help with my shopping list!

I've seen you're bike

I was at a certain dealers looking at a GS500 and happened to see a Vara with a sold sign on it, I asked if it was for a lad from Congleton they said yes he's picking it up a 4 do you know him
