Hi Everyone,

I've just signed up to the site after having a Boxertrix flyer left on my bike in London's, Docklands. Thanks to Geoff whose name was on the back of it.

I've been riding bikes for years and bought a '99 R1100S last December as I needed a big shafty for commuting, after putting 20K miles on it since I must say I'm extremely impressed with it.

This is a great site, I've only had a quick look around and already found the answers to a few questions I had. I do have a few more questions but will post those at a later date.

Cheers for now, Alan

Welcome aboard BillyBob.

Does Geoff get the award for the most converts this year ?

Welcome to the group Alan (why BillyBob?)

I put a card on a blue S over at OnYerBerk a couple of months ago (a guy out riding with a GS-owning colleague) - dunno if the owner ended up on here or not. I think it should be compulsory for those who have been 'carded' to state such when first posting - it'd be like ring-tagging birds. Sort of get a national map as to Trixters' movements

Welcome to the site BillyBob. The only reason I 'ticket' more 'Trixters', .. is coz I get out more.

Gromit,

The name BillyBob comes from my mates at work who think that, because I've just returned from 6 months in the States and now live in a quiet part of Essex I'm an American country hick!

A bit unfair I think

Andy,

Sounds like a fine idea to me.

Is there anyone else from Essex on here who would be up for it??

Well,. I could be tempted for a sunday bimble,. fincingfield's only 4 miles from my place,..... but you'll all have to promise not to blast-off and embarrass me, ... and I'm not sure which bike I'll have then.
