I always wanted to go touring around the west country. Most of my mates had cars before me, so no one to go with. Also I was offered to ride the chair in sidecar racing. My girlfriend gave me an ultimatum, her or racing. Seems I picked the wrong one and didn't go racing. Have you done any off road riding?

All my mates had bikes before me. Reason was I left school a year after them. So it was either Billy no mates while they were all out riding and enjoying themselves, or get a bike. Do you think that the current rules, regarding what size bike someone can ride, is reasonable?

no theres to many rules and regulations. it dos'nt matter what bike you ride, when you step up to the next level theres going to be a big difference. its up to you to take it easy untill your used to your new bike which of the bikes you've had did you enjoy most

No, I am a plain sort of bloke who does need additives Do you use main dealers, smaller motorcycle mechanics or DIY for your bike maintenance?

If you were on a long run and the weather turned really bad would you continue or stop in a hotel ?

Was in that situation a few years ago, stopped in a hotel, the rain was so heavy i could hardly see where i was going. Woke up the next morning to 3 inches of snow. Tea or coffee?

I am not to sure if they do or not. I am not so keen, but the power is normally amazing, although engine life a lot shorter. What is your preference on number of cylinders?

Mostly bike, but would consider a trike if I could work out a safe way of putting the hound on the back! What were your first impression of BM when you joined?
