    Hi, just joined the forum, as after over twenty years of riding sportsbikes i have gone naked :p

    This is mainly due to my advancing years (55) and a very knackered back due to a rather nasty highside, which means i can no longer bend myself up like a pretzel to get tucked in, so the Gixer got traded in for a Speed Triple 1200 RS.

    Loving it so far, and living in the Northern end of Cumbia, i have both the Lakes and the Borders to ride in.

    Cheers

    Nick

    @Nix Welcome to the family. Sorry to hear about the back. But keep riding as long as you can get some enjoyment. Do hit the upload a file bottom right and show the patrons your bike

    Beautiful part of the world to ride a bike! I found the roads a bit narrow, but the scenery is beautiful! Love the Lake District (I lived in Hull briefly, and drove a car around with the family while there).
