Hello from Sussex

Post by mozza »

Hello all, just joined up so thought I'd drop a message in.

I'm currently riding a Street Triple 765, having got back into bikes a couple years ago after a decade or so off. Previously in my younger years I had a KH100, RGV250 and an NC30, which I rode around most of Western Europe.

I've done one track day at Brands Indy last year and hope to do a few more this year. Here's my current steed..

That's a lovely looking thing Mozza... Congratulations.

A few of us here are not shy of a trackday or 5... So you should get some company with luck.

Welcome in and enjoy the forum.

Brands is great, you don't get much rest on the Indy circuit, fairly hectic. I'm half tempted to book a GP date this summer. I've watched so many races on that layout it'd be great to actually ride it.

That's good news!

Ah great. Yeah I moved down here about a year ago from Surrey so still getting used to it.

Funnily enough, same here!

Oh, and it's nice to see that someone knows how to use the inline markup. ;)

Brands Indy is a bit 'concentrated'. Good for spectating though. :thumbup:

Thought several times of moving from Surrey to Sussex, particularly around the Chichester/Goodwood bit but inertia is a powerful thing. :lol:
