And another......
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.

We try to keep things lighthearted, but also to look seriously at the TT. The secret of a good message board is good members. Welcome, and we look forward to seeing you at the 2008 TT. If there is anything you need help with, this lot will have the info!

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.

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.

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