Yay, you're here!
Good to hear from you matey, must admit, in the absence of other info I'd assumed that you'd given up those dangerous motorbike things...

As for what you've missed, well a few of us have bought and sold a few bikes (in couchy's case, there are obviously one or two that never even got to be ridden.. ;) ), we went to Pembrey again last August (no BBQs so a decent blow out in the curry house instead), one or two of us have had Covid and got better, Big Kev had a heart attack but is back in reasonable fitness and signed up for the May Portimao trip and one or two people came over here from TRC but have since fucked off due to the lack of opportunity to throw shite about politics here, that's probably enough to be going on with :D

So, have you completely given up bikes now, or do you have a Gixxer replacement?

:oops:

Sounds like a lot has been going on... yeah, I saw the pictures from Pembrey. :) Glad to hear Big Kev is on the mend!

Let's just say for now I've taken a break from motorbikes whilst I deal with some other matters. However, being completely honest I'm not missing having a bike as a lot has changed in the past 12 months. New house, change of role at work (so no more commuting), new member of the family (dog) and a keen interest in fitness as some have noted which means I've lost two stone since I last saw you guys.

Whilst 2020 was a shit show for most including me for obvious reasons, some positives did come out of it.

Let's hope 2021 is a bit better. ;)

Can't argue with that...2020 is a year that I'm glad to see the back of - as Tricky said, I nearly didn't make it half way :(

However, all is looking better now and am just awaiting final tests from hospital.

Welcome.
