Hi everyone, I'm lee and I'm from Blackpool. after riding Kawasaki's for a while I have now just bought my first triumph. bought a triumph tiger 800 xc se which I will be collecting on the 1st march and I really can't wait. not sure if anyone else on here is around my area but it would be good to meet other people near by!
Hi and welcome Lee, good choice of bike by the way! Blackpool is a bit of a trek for me but one or two of us sometimes head up for a blast in the Lake District for a long weekend.
i'll be going to the lakes a lot on this thing, try and see how it handles on those little cobble roads and do a little bit of green laning on it. think this month is going to go really slow but I'm not too fussed since we're having terrible weather..
Your brave to take it Green laning (yes yes I know its supposed to be ok off road) but still allot of cash to throw in the mud! Still these guys know how to ride them off road The Raiden Files - Portland to Dakar - A Riding Movie - YouTube
spent most of my life on off road bikes so it shouldn't be too much different. will be putting some big engine bars on it to help out and I'm not going to be going like those guys that's for sure! will be gutted if I drop it though..
lucky bugger.. loving the tenere in the background! wouldn't mind having a wr250 as a toy as well as my xc. too young to be owning a few bikes as insurance is too high to be owning more than one bike. hate paying the price I do for one bike, couldn't justify paying it out twice.
