Howdy from Frome

Post by skippydave »

Hi all, have been living and riding around Somerset for around 15 years now, have recently sold a few Guzzi's and a Royal Enfield (mid life crisis :oops: ) and am now left with a Honda CBF500 and a Superglide (maybe another mid life crisis :roll: ) average about 8000 miles a year, basically eat, breath and sleep bikes, like the classic stuff but if it's got 2 wheels it's got my attention :D always up for meeting like minded folk and always up for a ride. keep on rolling and ride safe Dave.

Thanks for the welcome guys, roads are pretty good down here as long as you avoid the odd pot hole here and there. One of my favorite runs is to ride down through Cheddar (fag break) and head out to Weston (loo, fag and coffee) then head back over the Mendips through Blagdon (uh fag break) and then over the top of Bath and back home to Frome, full circuit is around 100 miles and is nice to do on an early summer morning before the roads get to conjested.
