Hi from Christchurch, New Zealand
Hi from Christchurch, New Zealand
Gidday All. I've been a member for a month or so, thought I should introduce myself. An old Bugger at 53, riding since the early 80's, mainly Japanese multi's - GPz750 (x2) & 1100, GSXR1100 & 1000, RD & LC350, and 2 R1's. Soon to be a third. I'd pop a photo or 2 on here if I could figure out how to do it! Happy riding, folks.

Age is relative, the average forum age is around 42 when I last surveyed it, but there are quite a few of us in our 50's and we even have members in their 60's and 70's. Mind you from where I'm sitting I wish I was still 53

Hi, welcome to the forum.
I hear it's a bit more chilled over there.
