    Ello, am from Liverpool, just got back into cycling after 13 years (I'm 24!!) and have just started cycling to work!

    The steed!

  • Nice bike(s) t84, always liked VFRs, never had one though. Will be a sad week as the ZRX1100 has to go soon! In a couple of years a VFR might be on the cards though, seeing as it's more acceptable to my wife than the tandem I keep suggesting!

    aye, think i'm the youngest vfr800 owner in existance though! ;)
  • yeh I thought you legally had to be 'middle aged' - never got why though! Over 35 is good for insurance though, my ZRX only cost £100 a year FC, compared to about £400 a year for a Fiat Punto - if there's any logic in there I can't find it!

    Aye, My VFR is £290 fully comp (I'm 24)

    Been looking at getting a car for the winter, and getting bored of motorbikes at the moment, If I passed my test now, even though I'm 24, something like an mx-5 is coming up for £3,000 on confused.com!

    Have since quit smoknig, no real desire to start again (it'll be a month come this Thursday!) I'm 20, and an assistant manager of a nice country pub. Fun fun. Aiming to join the police in December. Bit of a geek with films, and I love my music.

    Is that overlooking Fuengirola?

    If I'm right, do I win five pounds?

    Nice bike, very pink...But, I like pink bikes!....Don't ask........ :oops:
    You need to remove the wheel reflectors..........please!
    Also, your rear brake line is not going through the first guide on your top tube, that should be sorted, you wouldn't want to snag it on something in the woods and rip it off!!

    I like the 'S', but I'm looking for a C4S! :twisted:
