Post by haywireSquid »

Hi everyone,
My name is Dan and i'm in west Somerset, near Crowcombe to anyone who knows the area.
I have been on a break from biking for a few years, my last bike was a speed triple 1050 which i sold a few years back.

I just got a new toy this week which is a KTM 1290 Super Adventure s, wow what an amazing machine.
Lets hope this summer is as good as the last one and i should have some fun this year.

Mainly interested in road riding so might tag along for the upcoming cobweb ride.

Dan

Good bike choice, Dan.

I don't want to test one out as I know I'll want to chop my 1190 in for one........

Hope to see you out on a ride soon. I can't make the Cobweb ride as I'll be in Bristol recovering from a G&T overdose I expect - catching up with mates I haven't seen for nearly 30 years!!

Hiya Dan, I’m the other side of the Quantocks from you 😀
We’ll have to get our heads together at the cobweb ride and organise a bit of a ride out 👍

Welcome Dan.
Shooey's leading a ride soon that may be dipping in to the Brendon and Quantocks Hills for quite a bit of it, why not tag along? Leaving Sainsbury's @ Taunton on the 14th April. Check it out in the Rideout section.
