Ah, Redditch!
I was brought up in Solihull :)

Is it still all roundabouts?

Welcome BTW
Does the paint still fall of the wheels and swing arms on Kawasakis at the first sign of rain? :D

Yep… twinned with Telford I think :mrgreen:

I used to ride in the rain and snow and sleet and all kinds of weather for years, commuting and for work.

Now…..

I’m fed up of repainting the wheels so fair weather for me :oops:

Hi Horse, Have we met??

I knew someone of the same name, had an insanely modded 04/5 ZX10R, very loud, got black flagged at Mallory after you took my place as I think I dropped my bike! Must have been circa 2009/2010
I think it might have been someone else with a similar name.... our Horse is more of a "lets discuss the lines you are taking for corners on the road and how you really should have taken them for the utmost smoothness" rather than owner of an insanely modded super loud ZX10 that gets pulled on track days :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Welcome in btw :thumbup:

Ahhhh ok, good to know, sometimes I see the same person, (just like me) use the same forum name across several forums. Would have been good to say hello because he was a great character as I’m sure the horse on here is too :)
