Greetings From Reigate

Postby Corky78 » Sat Apr 13, 2013 3:30 pm

Hi All,

Just joined the TRF since deciding to take up a new challenge and try some green laneing.

I have been a biker for the past 19 years but have stuck to sports/sports tourers up to now. I currently own a Kawasaki Z1000SX and it's perfect for tours into Europe (something I've done for the last 5 years).

I'm missing this year as my wife and I are expecting our first child next month, so I decided to invest the money I would have spent on a 1994 Kawasaki KLX250. I bought in in Janurary and have spent a few months getting it mechanically sound and through an MOT - she's leaking a bit of oil and has a bit of trouble with the kickstart gear, but nothing I can't sort in the winter months and nothing stopping me from using her now.

I ride mostly with my best mate who has just bought an XR250 to join in our new adventures - he's not joined the TRF yet but I've already started working on him to become a member!

Have so far only done a morning in the lanes around Dorking and had great fun. Have marked up and located lots of others in the area so looking forward to riding these too.

I hope to join in some of the led rides you organise and look forward to meeting some of you soon.

Ride safe & all the best

Hi All, Im also new to the TRF, been out twice and loved it, going pretty much to every newbie ride! :)

I think I rode with you the first time corky, grey drz400, full of mud by the end of the day, somehow it turned quite challenging towards the end of the day... :P

Anyway, I also live in Reigate, let me know if you want to meet up, Im also riding this saturday with Dave, maybe going to club nite next tuesday.

See u around,

Al
