What did you do with your bike today?

[mthee]

Hee hee I Like it,  sounds like I need to swing my leg over a bike again. Really starting to miss the buzz after one year lay off.

When do you think you'll be healed up enough for this to happen?

To be honest Matt I could probably ride now but my elbow is still giving me some serious grief from time to time, even riding a push bike is painful so was going to wait until next spring. Hopefully give a bit more time for the soft tissue to heal better and build up some more strength generally in my arm. Give it another 6 or 7 months and I'm sure I'll be back riding....cheers, Michael

Its been a long road to recovery for you Michael. Hope your injuries carry on improving

Hi Tim, yes mate it certainly has. I was told by the surgeon who sorted my arm for me that'd be 18months before I started to "feel normal " again. At the time I kindda thought (in my ignorance) "yeah right, I'll be sorted in 6 months " oh how wrong I was and oh how right he's been. All credit to him tho as my arm is virtually back to normal now. Roll on next spring I say....and again thanks to all that showed their support for me when I was in a pretty "dark place"....cheers all....Michael

Is this right? A sensible person on the TC forum? How can this be? All the best to you, I'm sure by taking a sensible approach you will be avoiding complications in years to come.

Lovely that Tim!!

Was being nosey earlier, and looked into the registration number. Appears it was issued in Shrewsbury, so she's a Shropshire bike, originally.

Out on Morini the Minx 125H for a shakedown down ride afore the MoT tomorrow. Nice evening until the harr came in from the east. A couple of pounds of blackberries for the cereal as well.

Toodle pip, Bill

The GN has a lovely torquey little 4 stroke engine so you should be ok!   I always though the engine in a  neat little 125 Trials/trail rolling chassis would make a cracking little off roader...only drawback was the lack of a kicker on the GN engine

I gave the bike a final polish before the dealer arrives, hopefully it will be gone by teatime.

Hi Tim....welcome 

Looks a lovely looking bike, good luck with the sale.

[guest1772]

It has gone and an XBR500 will replace it.

The AJS was fine but was causing problem with my knee and hip, the XBR has an electric foot.

Lovely AJS, but I don't think you'll be disappointed with the XBR, they are a cracking little bike!
