Hi All,
From the UK, just joined the forum a few days ago....thought I should say hello and introduce myself
Live in Shrewsbury and have just bought a 2009 America in phantom black...
Bit of a story, was not intending to buy until I passed my test, but got such a good deal, I could not reseist...Both tests booked now in October and doing the Direct Access mode...
However, do have a Honda CG 125 I use more or less daily at the present, just to ride and practice on between going on a 500cc with an instructor present...
Lucky enough to have a place I can practice off road as well doing the module 1 stuff...so hoping I can home in the skills a bit more...
Intending to go along to the Dent UK America rally in 2010 hoping there is one!
Anyway, that is me....
Cheers for now....

Welcome, and congrats on the great purchase! 
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Thanks all for the warm welcome...to be honest I have not really been lurking, just joined and here I am.... Good to see a few across the pond too....yep another Limey here...well actually, both my parents were Irish and moved here in the sixties....My Dad was a big biker in his time and used to ride BSAs and Triumphs.... Waited all this time to get to 43 before getting around to biking...ah well never too late... Anyway I'll keep on drinking my pints off snakebite tonight and looking forward to a bit of banter with ya all... Cheers for now
