Hi Fellas, no,not me,my 90 isnt that tidy ha ha.thanks for setting me strait bout getting some nobblies, will have a look on ebay. An old fella down the end of my road gave me my bike,said it would keep me out of trouble,and when i told him about the matey riding to vietnam he larfed so much he nearly swallered his false teeth.said the furthest he went on his was tesco express in the high street,ha ha real funny for an old boy.Got me riding gear together today and i think i am ready to go.Got a crash hat from the car boot on the A3,its a bit tight but at least it wont fall off ha ha,oh and it aint got a peek,i look like the bloke they fire out the cannon at the circus ha ha but it was only £4.My uncle gave me his old waterproofs from when he worked on the gas board, there hi viz but warm and dry.got some real thick gardening gloves from B&Q 2 pairs a pound should save me hands only thing i need is boots as i only usualy wear trainers but my sister said i could use her wellies when she wasnt using them, good job shes got big feet ha ha ha. So do i just add my name to the list when a run comes up or do i need any training or anything ? cheers dark rider

ps i call myself dark rider coz im on the old rock n roll at the mo but got a job on the side delivering takeaways at the weekends for the local curry house so i only ever ride in the dark ha ha ha well funny.

Hello dark rider, don`t take any notice of farmerdave he`s just being a knob, you will be welcome on our runs and won`t be judged by what bike you ride or what clothes you wear.We try to encourage new members and you will soon find out what bike/clothing is more suitable.I have a monkey bike that i use on the lanes in the summer so when you are ready i will show you some of the local lanes on that.

PS farmerdave don`t be such a twat

Thanks a lot matey
