Hi Lank and welcome to the group. It's great to have another member from across the world. Are you an engineer by chance? Maybe you could tweak the warp drive? lol Congrats on the future 'wee one'. :thumb:
Welcome to the group, lank. I've always wanted to visit Scotland, I think it's a beautiful country. When you get a chance, post up some pics.
welcome to the group. out of curiosity, what kind of riding season do you get over there? what are good months to visit, etc?
Welcome, just so you don't think your alone in naming bikes, mine is Lady Barbara (also a 2005 Silver). Named after a character in a book, class but with a bit of an edge.
We ride all year round here.. Our weather is changeable so we may get snow in April or 16 Degree days (C) in November.. Best stick to May to September for best chance of good weather , but it also depends where you are visiting - the west coast is much wetter than the east. Lank8pew, welcome to the group, you will find a more local forum http://www.bikersoracle.com/vfr/forum/ Rod (Arbroath)
Jev See some of our pics on the Uk forum - http://www.bikersoracle.com/vfr/forum/ enter wee weekend in the search box - we tend to do several fairly intensive weekends away every year Rod
hi there, thanks fo rthe warm welcome, i will post some pictures Jev, we really do have some great riding routes, my mates and I are going for run this comming sunday, i'll be sure to get some pics then. REG71 althogh i ride all year round, my favorite time of year for riding is july/august thats when the weather is warmest and all the tourist attractions open, there are also more bikers out during those months. hey Rogue, i will be sure to check out the pics,m although i'm not sure i agree with your description of the weather as appart from a fortnight of sun it seems to have rained all year (lol, only kidding it's not that bad). ;> Lank
