Hi all

[Buzz]

Have been waiting for the mag since hearing about it but didn't get to the newsagents in time...I ride an Aprilia Caponord (heard most of the lines about Italian bikes but happy to hear some new ones). Am an avid convert to adventure riding with all the usual big dreams and ambitions that defy the shallowness of my pockets and amount of leave available. Got off sports bikes about 3 years ago as the speeds, traffic and everything else were just getting silly (and yes I am getting older too!). These days just as much fun to be had on muddy BOATS in Wales, roaming in Scotland and traversing Europe (well one day)- only no diesel, blinkered car drivers and all at under 100mph (at least 30% under of course - just in case there are any official types looking in). Looking forward to reading the news, ideas and info on the site and in the forums...Cheers all - BUzz

Welcome Buzz, and a fine first post. You've summed up spot on the views and feelings of many a rider, something the established magazines and journos just didn't get, and still don't.

Welcome to the forum Magwa. Nothing to do with bikes but I have to mention that I've stood on the spot where you were taken out by Chingachgook in LOTM. Nice views.
