Guess who's back.. on a bike
After stopping motorcycling very abruptly 12 years ago, I am back on two wheels!
I shan't be scratching and hooning, I shall be pootling about like the old geezer that I am rapidly becoming
Return of The Martian, with a much more sedate sequel!

I give it 3 rides before it's on the back wheel, closely followed by an intimate encounter with a hedge.

Wheelies and hedges were never my thing, I was more stoppies highsides and encounters with things (unfortunately) much more solid than hedges..Rockburner wrote: Mon Jul 21, 2025 7:02 pm I give it 3 rides before it's on the back wheel, closely followed by an intimate encounter with a hedge.

It'll breakdown before you hit anything with it, and it hasn't got enough power to highsideThe Martian wrote: Mon Jul 21, 2025 7:08 pmWheelies and hedges were never my thing, I was more stoppies highsides and encounters with things (unfortunately) much more solid than hedges..Rockburner wrote: Mon Jul 21, 2025 7:02 pm I give it 3 rides before it's on the back wheel, closely followed by an intimate encounter with a hedge.

Re: Guess who's back.. on a bike
Great to see you've returned to biking and nice choice of bike, always liked that model of 900SS. Even better to have you back posting about riding (hopefully).
