It may be in my blood, but it certainly isn't in my parents or my brothers. My parents didn't mind to much when in 1974 me and a mate pooled our pocket money to buy a old Honda S50 as a field bike, probably thought it was just a phase that I would grow out of, before long I was buying MCN, Motorcycle Weekly, Motorcycle Mechanics, I even purchased the edition 1 of New Motorcycleing Monthly. Dec 1976 I turned 16 and could get a moped Licence, there was no way I could afford a Moped and my parents were unwilling to help. By the time I had saved enough money to buy a moped and insure it, I was nearly 17 so I decide to buy a 125 and have never looked back, 27 years of continuous biking and over 40 bikes later dispite a few broken bones and hospital visits.
There have been a few unpleasent moments in those years but far out weighed by the good moments and the excellent friends I have made along the route.
and Fordie its not so much the right wrist as the Grey matter controling it.
