Hiya,
  no - they arent all grumpy (far from it

 ) but its the norm here as on many boards, to post up a 'hello' & a bit of info & chat first. 
 and as for being a male preserve here? - or with ducatis'? - well, some of the males here need to be preserved

 - in vinegar - but on the whole they are all lovely

 Just like most people in all walks of life  are the peeps at the DSC bar
