Hi from a new member (and anyone up for UK Sussex rides?)

Post by zzwenn »

Hi all,


brand new to the forum here and wanted to say 'Hi' be.


Having moved 'up' to a 1200RT from a 1150GS recently (or should I say side-ways?) I still feel like a RT rookie with 1k miles in the saddle. Well actually before the GS there was flying brick K1100LT so I am quite used to the tupperware  ;D .




Also: Who else is in the region? UK/West Sussex? I am up for a ride and petrol chat over a cuppa.


Cheerio and safe rides!

Hi from another newbie here.


We had a series of the 1100 and 1150s before a series of Ks, including an 1100 LT.

I’m in West Sussex, close to the Surrey border.


Try and come along to the meet-up in Monmouth if you can make it.

Hi BoB21 and Sullivj,


is the Monmouth only 10th/July or 10th & 11th? I got a ride out with a couple of friends towards that direction and could make it a little later/meet up the next day (11th).

Dang.
I'll keep the Monmouth as a second option in case my planned ride-out runs dry (or too wet for some ;)).


Is there a meeting point/time for the Monmouth ride-out day?
