HeyHo

Just registered and a fairly noob. I am not a kid but have grey hair and after riding my first bike (Honda CD175) some 28 years ago, I decided to restart riding and go for my test.

So, this Monday the 13th I have my theory and HP and hopefully will go for the practica asap.

Wish me luck

Now there's going to be loads of questions from me so be patient with this grey haird dog noob

Re: HeyHo

Good luck for Monday and welcome to the forum. As for the questions, crack on - some of the answers will be good sound advice, others will be out and out mickey taking - but that's all part of the fun of the forum

Re: HeyHo

Cheers all

Manky Cat, I am in Belfast but come to England quite frequently. Hopefully the next time will be on the bike. I actually bought one in Carlisle about 6 weeks ago and rode it back through to Stranraer.

garyo, nice to know I am not the only creaker about

druidsam, thanks, I have actually been looking at these and thats when I joined (because it restricted me looking for free )

Rerb, actually the CVD175 was great. I had in when I lived in Southfields (SW19). I lost heart in motorcycles when it got stolen.

Re: HeyHo

Welcome aboard and good luck with the test on Monday m8 it should be a breeze, how much has technology changed the humble motorcycle since those CD175 days hey.

You have 28 years to make up so hope to be reading your touting stories and flicking through all your pictures
