Back on the Road!

[Doc]

Hi all,
After a long break after I ripped a muscle in my leg, I am getting on my bike for the first time again tomorrow. 

See you out on the road! 

Cheers, Doc

Good grief Doc. Good to hear from you and that you are on the mend.
The bloody strange thing is I was just looking back some old thread 10minutes ago (due in part to the recent thread comeback by Veejays first week thread). I was looking for the thread that I was getting a hard time about being on here ( lol yes Ian....you haha) and seen you answering my question about trekker top boxes. Then is went on to Go-Pro's lol.

Anyway...welcome back.

PS, still a few of the early folk still here.

Hi Slomo,
I hope you are well.
I just keep getting these stupid injuries that keep you house-bound and off the bike. Hopefully now I will have some better luck.
Going out for a ride with my son tomorrow on his CB1000R - can't wait.

Cheers,
Doc

This got me thinking back Brian.........  checked my own posts from almost 3 years ago when I finally managed to find a dealership with a DCT on demo

quote from 10-06-2012 :-
 
I have been wanting to buy one bike to 'do it all' instead of the 3 bikes i run at the moment

Having completed a 3 hour test ride on the Triumph explorer last weekend and was put off by the 'hair trigger' throttle and STOOPID cruise control system (read 'dodgy') i have finally found a dealer that has a DCT on demo

I was all arranged to pick up a Manual geared version from Blackpool honda yesterday and to ride it to Lancaster honda (same group) to then take out the DCT for a run and then swop back to the Man back to blackpool, then the rains came BIG style so i cancelled

However the nice young sales lady called Laura re-arranged it all for today after seeing the weather forecast was better so off we went (my son as pillion)

I was impressed already but when i got on that flipping DCT i was over the moon

So i bought one 

Digital silver DCT with SE pack

The deal was done when they gave me a decent price for my trade-ins (yes, there were 2 of them)

My 08 hornet FA8 and a citroen C2VTR !!!

I'm Ian, a 57 years old chap from Leigh, Lancashire, UK.

Also run a TDM900

and a TRX850 which i bought for my new hobby of trackdays (only been twice up to now but enjoyed them immensely)

Will be frequenting the forum on a regular basis so see you all soon

Ian

The only problem with these fond memories is that it has made me realise the 3 year warranty is up in about 3 weeks
