Welcome to our biking community Ash, what a beautiful bike you have, and it’s in super fast red ... even better .

Having been riding for 50 years, you will fit right in here, quite a few of us are... well ... over 60 or 70

Welcome

Stephen

Welcome from the New Forest, Ash. I'm sure we'll meet up some time in the future. :handgestures-thumbup:
