What ho chaps & chapesses.

The old git is back, after a four year break from when I thought I wouldn't bother again, I couldn't resist.

I pick up a Guzzi Nevada next weekend and will no doubt be causing more tailbacks than when I'm towing my caravan.

They are supposed to be, if feels nice although I haven't been anywhere on it yet.

The main advantage for me is I can comfortably reach the floor.

I quite liked the look of that Royal Enfield Interceptor, but having sat on one in the showroom it is sadly a little too tall and heavy for me.

I always fancied a California, the T3 based version was the one of my youth.

I just can't reach the floor, so the Nevada will have to do.

Congratulations on your new bike! I’ve always liked the look of Guzzis. Remember to post some pics when you get it.

When I read the thread title I thought it would be about Julian Ryder regarding his Eurosports WSB coverage, to which I found myself shouting at the telly on regular occasions "Fek Orf Julian!". SO instead congrats on the return to the saddle.

Nigel Worcs could you please come and ride up and down our road and slow the annoying twunts that keep doing at least 50 in a 30. I will provide refreshments obviously.

Congratulations they look lovely bikes.
