Hello all

[RachaelEllen]

Hi, i'm Rachael, the daughter of SBQE2. I'm not technically a biker but i've been on the back for one WB ride. I'm also hoping to come tomorrow.

Looking forward to seeing you all

Welcome Rachel start as a pillion blossom into a biker ;D

[Morticia]

Hello and welcome.

Hi Rachael and welcome.

Even thought you say you're not "technically" a biker, your braver than me.
The thought of going on a bike without any control would scare me silly !

Especially with these new fangled pillion handles that are behind you - if it was me, I'd be hanging onto the driver round his torso with a grip on iron :o

See you tomorrow...

I'm not the brave one, i quite like having no responsibility for such an expensive machine!

We went for a 3 hour ride today so i'm hoping my knees will be up to tomorrow, it's such a long route!

Hi :)

I'm going to be a pillion rider to V1per wen he gets a bike.

I'm happier with 4 wheels myself but am looking forward to eventually going on ride-outs n meeting everyone [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

[RachaelEllen]

I definitely recommend pillion riding, it's great fun without any of the stress of crashing/dropping the bike! Hopefully i'll see you on a ride out in the summer :)

Hello

ps I started on the back of a bike, and I now find myself learning to ride one, lol you have been warned ;D

[RachaelEllen]

I do feel slightly addicted now, i must admit! Somebody mentioned about a programme where you can have a go on a 125 for free, does anybody know where i can find some more information on this? Oh dear, i've already been bitten!

[darrenatthesally]

The "Get On" scheme offers free ride, the website is http://www.geton.co.uk and they seem to have a fair few providers locally

Welcome to WB too :)

Ah brilliant, thank you! I've had a look and there's nowhere that near me in Liverpool so i'll have to be a southerner and do it in Bath, means i have to wait until the summer though :(

I was indeed, I had a fantastic time :) I think i've definitely got the bug now, not that i know anything about bikes at all haha! I'm really up for having a go on that free scheme, not sure my coordination is good enough though!

And Finbar,you've got to love the fear factor!

[Roll_on]

Hi Rachael welcome to Wiltshire Bikers. We can always find you a pillion ride if you want to do a few more rideouts.

[RachaelEllen]

Aw that's very kind thank you :) I would definitely be up for that at some point

I knew diddly squat about the business end of a bike until a few weeks ago, and trust me I bring chaos where ever I go so if I can manage to ride a bike, and I'm far from a natural then you can do it. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
