Hi from London, UK

[chris711]

Hi all,

Another member from UK (London)

Been visiting for a long time but haven't introduced myself so here goes:

I always wanted a bike but was never allowed one, despite growing up with a big custom bike scene in East Anglia (Norfolk, UK) in the 70's and 80's.

It got to the stage where I thought if I don't do this now I never will, so I learnt to ride and passed my test aged 48. It was my dream to one day ride and own a chop so I commissioned a xs650 (hardtail chop) from a UK bike builder and picked it up just after my 50 birthday! and loving every minute of it!

Really admire you guys that build your own bikes and love looking at photos of your workshops and builds.

Cheers,

Chris

Wow, nice ride.

Sounds like it's about time for a group ride and pics from our Brit brothers, while your weather holds.

It's hustle time, Airwolfie and ANLAF!
