Hey all

I have recently (as in 2 weeks ago) moved over from Sydney, Australia.

I'm currently trying to find share accommodation, before my sports bike arrives, on the 27th July.

I'm keen on joining a motorcycle group that interacts regularly and does group rides often, so I can explore more of the UK!

I was involved in three groups in Sydney & we meet up for rides most Tuesday nights and Sundays, with the frequent weekend away as well as meeting as a pub to watch the MotoGP and SuperBikes  :o)

I don't know what the bike culture in London & UK is like, but i hope it is as freindly and socially involved as that of Sydney.

Cheers for now and hope to meet up with you all, either at a pub or on the open road!

Ian

Hi Ian - congratulations on finding the friendliest and most socially involved bike club in London '<img'>  (not always socially acceptable though, present company excepted...).

As long as you are not taking delivery of a Gixxer Thou, it will be great to see you - Box Hill on a Wednesday and Ace cafe on a Friday. If you let us know where you are likely to be based within this throbbing metropolis, someone will be happy to escort you to either of these places I'm sure.

Only joking about the Gixxer Thou btw - just that they're as common as muck round here these days... '<img'>

Thank for you the welcome  '<img'>

Nah, no Gixxer for me as I am waiting for my h**da Firestorm to arrive. Mind you i did try the K6 GSXR1000 & 750, but found then too small for me.

I might try to pop along to say 'HI', but won't be able to ride, given lack of two wheels  ':crazy'

He's probably an OAP or something. Too good to be true otherwise.

Welcome Zine and I'll have a rum and coke '<img'> .

I'm not from Oz but lived in Brisbane for a while. At least you will understand my shock from Redrat when after a VERY LONG time he told me I was South African '<img'> , Not the best as I'm a Kiwi and don't sound like a Safa at all. But who gives a F '<img'> .

Must ask, why did you bring your bike over? Must have cost a lot and the UK is a flood with bikes '<img'>
Hope you are making jokes and have a smile on your face my Danish diplomatic friend. Long may your memory live!
