"Looking at a cheeky cb125 for my first bike.
Then when I have full licence I'll look at nice cruisers.
Vulcan, intruder, elminiator, rebel, bonnieville, bobber. Still on the fence about harleys"
Why does the first three of these models sound more like the name for a vibrator. LOL |

Seems so but you need to have met somebody in the chat socially , or mutual acquaintances it seems . Which is fair enough given the plethora of absolute baw bags in this place 
I’m just waiting for a wee group social to be arranged so I can head a long. Don’t seem to be many in Edinburgh and I don’t fancy a club being my first social .. I’m on a good few bike forums but the ones in Edinburgh are shite so most of riding has been solo ( quite fucking literally ) |

There seem to be plenty of groups in the glasgow area that ride tour way, or you could meet up with. Obviously not on fab, but would give you a riding buddy.
Who organises the fab riding socials? Or do it just need to scour the forums? |

"Would be good to organise a group ride, meet somewhere for coffee and a bacon roll before heading out a good run somewhere for the day"
Im sure lots of people on here would be up for that. Let me know if you plan something, especially if its 125 friendly |

Yeah, bike is great for clearing the head, its my happy place. More than happy to add anyone as a friend so we can put a wee status update regarding runs arranged if easier than trawling through the forum? Or get a group chat on the go somewhere? |

Had a beautiful rides up the rest and be thankful. Loch lomond road is boring on a 125, but the road back i went the loch long way and its an amazing ride.
I need to do that one again when the camera plays ball. Maybe go further than the rest and be thankful car park next time |

"Yeah the loch long road definitely isnt as boring as the loch lomond road, and you never get traffic backing up on the loch long road on the way back down too 👌"
There was me and 1 car on the loch long road, at the best of the twisties, so I really cant complain at all |

Just gotta hope its dry when you head along that road, not so much fun when its wet. I ended up going up to st fillians, was a good wee run up past lochearnhead |

It was dry, or drying. There were a few bits still water logged but nothing too bad for the most part. Being on a 125 helps. Being a new rider helps more. Im not breaking any speed records lol |

I did the beatson run last year. Was a great atmosphere. Only thing that spoilt it for me was the idiots red lining the revs when stopped at lights etc. No need for that on a Sunday morning. Unfortunately can't make ut thus year as I'll be on a bike tour of the lake district. Hope everyone going enjoys it. |
