Hi from sunny Stoke on trent

Post by anthony4773 »

Hi all

I've been a memeber on here since I purchased my 4xv from a former memeber.
I changed the bike a year ago to a 5pw but was disappointed to find out the 4xv had been written off previously :evil:

I recently had a little fall on my bike and bugger my foot and a couple of ribs, my first ever off on a bike.

My plan is to get it repaired myself and get back on it next year, so I hoping to pick your brains on a few questions I'm sure I will run into doing this :ugeek:

My spelling is also pretty dior apologies in advance .

Welcome in mate, hope you get well soon. Some pics of your ride before your off would be good. :)

Is there a way to post pics from an iPad without using photo bucket?

Yep Tapatalk if it's available for Ipads, or Tinypic on the web that is free. :)

High Anthony, welcome to the forum.
Don't worry about the spelling, as long as the message gets across that's all that matters...although Dior spelling has a certain smell to it :D

Honestly I didn't get the chance to ride the 5pw much before the accident as I've had a lot on recently.

The 4xv I took over to the Isle of Man, I'm no guy Martin but I did enjoy it and came back in one piece


It's driving me crazy being stuck in the house.

Well get yourself fighting fit and then you can get to grips with the 5pw ;)
If I'm out a bit more next year we might get to meet up seeing as your only down the road & there's always the yearly bar-b-que
