    Hi and welcome to WB [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

    Motorways serve a purpose but are pretty boring!

    Hi Nicky, hope you can get out on your bike this week end! best rides are "a" type roads , twistys and long bends no cars, just like the road between andover and newbury, Roll on the summer 8-) longer rides and cafes for hot tea !! Safe Riding

    Hi Nico, just moved from the Andover/Newbury area to not so sunny Warminster. Some great rides in that area especially heading south to Andover on A343 then keep heading south on A3057 through Stockbridge and Romsey. Head back the same way or via Winchester and just explore those roads.

    Welcome to WB. ;D

    Yeah a ride this area would be fantastic. I went out on the bike today for the first time and just kept in the Woolton Hill, Ball hill area. Struggled to ride in my leathers. Does anyone have any advice about how to soften them? Also the foot peg kept catching in the top of my boots everytime i put my feet down which made me a bit unsettled. Any one have any idea how i can sort that out with like somehow sealing the top of my boot so the footpeg cant catch it?

    Any ideas would help. Other than that, she drives beautiful, have to run her in though, but am totally over the moon !!
