New member, not so new biker or bike...

Post by mikbobs »

Hey guys, and gals of course...

Thought I'd join up on here after loving the mags!

Been a biker for 8 years, that's a third of my life now! I'm currently on my 7th bike and it's the best bike in the world! ( At least I think so anyway B) )

It's a KTM 990 SMT, bought her new in April this year and I've already taken her to Spain, Andorra, France and Wales! I also completed the IAM course earlier this year, which I recommend to everyone!

Unfortunately my poor bike is stuck in the garage with a flat rear end till next weekend, but at least she's spotless! I've not been too lucky this year with punctures, good job tyres are so cheap... No wait... S@£&!

Here's how my baby looks at the moment, I had to take off those ugly exhaust sheilds as I'm never going to fit the useless KTM bags.

And here she is in Andorra earlier this year!

And in Snowdonia!

If you're bored and want to see more pictures of my KTM "Amazing" SMT, and my previous bikes, take a wander over to http://www.bikepics.com/members/mikrx125/

I'm generally down Shropshire way during the week and round East Lancashire at the weekends, so if anyone is up for a blast let me know!

Oh... And my name is Michael aka Mik

Adventure motorcycling is a challenge for those who go but only a dream for those who stay behind.
