    Hi everyone, Newby to triumph, and newish to biking again after almost 10 years of only 4 wheels. Triumph thunderbird storm 1700 to get me back into biking after a nasty accident and a few broken bones (and broken bike....)
    Shame the nice days will be numbered now though, from Durham in the north east UK and into October now so bikes parked up nice and dry in garage till next year? Apart from the odd nice winter day hopefully....

    @Pappa583 Welcome back to the family. Big old bike to reintroduce your self to two wheels. Do take it gingerly till you get the feel of the bike. Let us all know how you like it. And when you stop playing do hit the upload a file button right and show it of to the inmates.

    Welcome to the forum. 10 years off the bike not a problem, as Joe says take it easy acclimatising yourself to the new machine.
