    Thought I'd say hello.

    I'm Elaine, I'm old enough to know better and I live in Northamptonshire in the UK.

    I passed my test in February 2013, and have been riding a 2013 Yamaha Diversion F Touring since then, and then ten days ago I fell in love with a Thruxton. I've always loved Cafe Racers, so when I found this one by "accident" at my local Triumph dealer I had to try it... the rest is history as they say.

    Am loving being a Thruxton owner... I think its been polished more times than it's been ridden so far!! The day after it came home it had a mammoth polishing session, all day long with two of us doing it, one sat each side of the bike with all three of us covered in Autosol...

    I'm looking forward to meeting you all :biggrin:
