New bloke

Post by skelly »

Hi All.
Thought I'd best introduce myself.
My names Skelly, I'm from Leicester but I live in derbyshire now.
I have 2 and a half exups, all 1989 ones (the best type).
My fully faired (loctite) one has not turned a wheel for 4 years now and my naked one is about to be rebuilt.
Will do a build thread with pics.
Gona have a gorm through all the forums now.
Cheers.
Skelly.

Hi Skelly
Derbyshire's a great place to live.........especially if your bike's roadworthy.

Welcome Skelly. Depending where you are in Derbyshire we may be near neighbours. I'm just outside Mansfield and when the bikes on the road I do frequent Matlock area

Welcome in Skelly. Derbyshire isn't that far from Lincoln is it? You'll have to bring him over for our
annual meet up Stig. :D
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.
