    Hi to all. I pickup my new Thunderbird LT (in white) this Sunday. I'm looking forward to my first ride and to the crack on this forum.

    Thanks guy's, good to see other LT owners about. I see you are at either end of the country with me kind of in the middle.

    Good call half ton, luckily I'm a long standing UK biker so heated grips are the first extra on the bike before anything else.
    I've also added the rear rack, crash bars, power point in the bags and additional power socket. Getting excited now.

    Hi littleade, yes when it is really cold it can get at your finger tips. I've never used heated gloves so might give them a try.

    Hi Wessa welcome to the playground. Which bit of northwest England are you in. You can't get much further northwest than me, any further northwest and I'd be in Scotland

    Bang on, about 30 miles west of Keswick and just inland of St Bees. If you're planning a trip to the Lakes drop me a line and we can meet up somewhere.

    Hi Wessa -another one to look out for locally. I live near Northwich, and have just acquired a Scrambler to explore Derbyshire / Cheshire / North Wales. We're gonna have to start a Mid Cheshire Collective at this rate. Now where's there a decent bike friendly caf?
