Another convert from the "other site" - cbr_bill - 07-10-2007

Hi all,

I'm yet another to come across from the dark side!!!!

Bog 'er on!!!!!

And another...... - bighairybiker - 09-10-2007

Hi Everyone,

Just signed up - again from the other side (sv650sK3).

And the problem with using your bike as a profile name - you then go and change your bike - now I've got a wee Strom.

It's better for the annual pilgrimage to the IoM TT, and great for commuting and 2up, but pehaps not quite as much fun as the sv - but we'll see, there's still plenty of exploring to do yet!

Lived in the Isle of Man from 1991 - 2001, got my full bike licence in Jersey in 2003 and bought the sv. Swapped for the wee Strom (t) earlier this year, and used that for the TT (2up) - came over in the car for the MGP.

By the way - what a great TT, can't wait until 2008!

I've been living back in Scotland since 2003 - but I'm regularly back in the Island, and will be back at Christmas this year (though again in the car).

I'll catch up with some of the posts when I get a chance - look forward to some (not so) serious two-wheeeled topics.

Cheers, BHB.

Hello, BHB, welcome to ttwebsite... if I had had access to a computer and seen your initial post, I might have met up as I was across in Edinburgh for a few days.
Hope you enjoy the site and join in the discussions and the occasional nonsense.

Come over from the dark side too - JackieF - 30-10-2007

Greetings and welcome one and all to the site. here you will be meeting the pinnacle of of support for the TT and MGP albeit that there are a few ancient degenerates from around the globe that lurk here just waiting and itching for an opportunity for an argument and to cause trouble.

Oh, Tom, I would never have described you that way..............

- Tom Loughridge - 31-10-2007

Not me you fool, I was thinking of the Simons and Devlin fellas, still even reprobates and the descendants of transported washing line thieves can be good company at times.

- thewitch - 31-10-2007

Oh, Tom, how could I have thought... as if...

You'll recognise Simons and Devlin if you meet them. They often look in here.
