Hi everybody

I started riding again last spring after a gap of 26 years.

This was on a 2001 Yamaha FZS 600 Fazer but I have recently upgraded to a 2007 Honda CB 1300 SA.

My son got me into riding again 6 months after he passed his test since I thought that if you can't beat 'em, join 'em!

He has now got the Fazer after the sad demise of his beautiful black XJR 1300.

I used to be a courier in my mis-spent youth which gradually took all the joy out of riding but I'm pleased to report that the joy has returned.

My first ride on the Fazer was very, very scary.

How do you get a bike to go round corners and roundabouts without falling off?

I hope I'm doing rather better now.

Look forward to meeting some of you in the future.

Cheers
