When will I be a proper ....
nickerbelly replied to Davehutch-hutchs's topic in The Pub "Tinker and Budget"
I'm sure there are a number of us who did our time as "real bikers" - I was a despatch rider before I joined the army and used to deliver the news videotapes from incident/interview sites to the tv studios when I lived in devon (before the days of the internet!) - including more than once during severe gales that were blowing over trees and lorries!!! - but there comes a time in life when riding in shitty weather starts to seem an unnecessary pastime so I am quite happy to join the ranks of "fair weather bikers" - except when I'm off travelling the country, where getting caught in bad weather is all part of the experience! -

I have a vast and eclectic taste in music, all sorts of songs get me "right there" ranging from classical to modern club music!! but if I had to list just some of my favorites then I would go for :- Brian Adams-Heaven/I'm ready(to love you)/Summer of 69 (depending on my mood),Mr Mister-Broken Wings,Prince-Purple Rain,Paul Van Dyke-For an Angel,Jam&Spoon-Be Angeled,DB Boulevard-Different Point of View (remix) As I said - it depends on my mood as to what song gets me going so there's a selection!! - I also really like Tears for Fears, Gary Numan, Duran Duran, Depeche Mode - I could go on for hours

As with a number of the others - I would gladly stick with my ZZR1100D1 - it is by far the best bike I have owned to date, and the only bike I've owned that I just want to keep riding and riding! - you know the feeling, you've been out for a mega ride and you're nearly home, but the thought of getting off and putting your baby away is almost sacrilegious so you take the next turning off for a quick, last gasp blast down the lanes

Just passed my motorcycle test!
nickerbelly replied to bedfordbiker's topic in The Pub "Tinker and Budget"
I'll bet you're very glad to finally get it out of the way, it's onwards and upwards from now on! as well as the usual options, I would suggest having a look at the new(ish) magazine called "practical sportsbike" as well as the good old "classic bike" as they often have that sort of bike in the classifieds - good luck with your bike shopping! -
