    I was thinking (unusual for me I know)

    Would it be a good idea to have a thread for us members that have been here for quite a while to introduce ourselves properly ??

    It would be nice for newbies to be able to have a little bit of knowledge about us, as those that have known each other for a long time we might sound all cliquey and friendly....this could seem rather off putting to the newbie and they might feel uncomfy joining a thread if there is a lot of banter going on etc.

    I shall start the ball rolling ...a bit

    Im Tina Beamer
    I ride an ER6f and have had a full licence for all of 4 months as my 2 year restriction came off in May.
    I am classed as short (no idea why) and a bit nutty.
    I try to help out a lot within the club whenever time and work/home commitments allow.
    I only get out on my bike a bit but love it when I do.
    Im one of the more mature (in age only) members and at nearly 47 Im one of the most clumsy.

    Anyway, thats me...sort of.

    Trev, have a few bikes from Yam V50 through to GSXR1100K, dad of 3 (now grown up) kids, own my own business. Have been riding since I was a kid, passed my test at 17 (okay turned up sober!) on my first Suzuki X7 and have owned over 50 bikes - I just love the variety! Interests are family, bikes, travel, business and friends and working out how the hell to fit the time in for all.
    Although a WB member I actually live in Hampshire (heresy) near Ringwood on the edge of the New Forest so don't get to many meets.

    I'm Dan
    I ride either an MV Agusta F4 Senna or Triumph Street Triple depending on my mood.
    I work for the RAF for my sins.
    I volunteer for The Bike Experience at Silverstone whenever I can.
    Riding is my life and enjoy every time I go out.
    Currently live in Carterton but make as many meets as I can.
    People are more violently opposed to fur than leather because it's safer to harass rich women than motorcycle gangs.

    I am Conehead (Craig) and my wife named my bike SSB (Stupid Selfish Bike) probably because it gets more attention than she does.

    I ride a '92 Triumph Daytona (Hinckley) 1000 for my sins.

    Proud father of 3 kids (2 girls aged 5 and 2 and 1 boy aged 11 weeks) Yes the TV was broken

    Ride when I can and live in Salisbury.
    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    I'm Neil but most people call me Nelly. I've been loitering around on here for a few years now. I am currently down to a single bike at present, my trusty Honda CBR1100xx Super Blackbird. Been riding since 1982 (my first bike was a Suzuki ZR50 special). I passed my test on 14th Dec 1984. Back in the days when you had to be able to say hello, read a number plate, ride around in a circle and pretend you knew what you were doing when the examiner (on foot) appeared. I still learn stuff now when I'm out on my bike.
    If i'm not on the bike, then i'm probably asleep, at work in a secret military location (not really), or on here. I can be heard on the radio. I look after the Thursday night mayhem on www.bikerfm.co.uk (shameless plug ;-))
