Who's still here from the old site?

Just re found ridersite after a bit of a gap, and just wondering who's still around, from the Jack & Jill days

Hi Jam, Thought I recognised the name.

There's still a few about from days of old, Im sure they'll pop their heads in at some stage.

A few of the old lot migrated to TS, which you'll find in the links area. :smt001

Good to see some old faces again. I've just started my own workshop and dyno. I finally got fed up of teaching little scrotes, who were more interested in the 30 quid they get for being at college than learning motorcycle mechanics. Dyno is a mobile one so I can do the shows, as well as tuning work, I will probably be up at the Bulldog with it this year. The workshop is currently having a new roof on it so I'm not in there until end of July, so garage, spare room and everwhere else is full of bike stuff at the moment. My ZRX is in this months Streetfighters, along with a picture of me and my Dane Ashley, who we lost just over a week ago, due to his worsening arthritis,we had to let him go, but he reached a good age of 10 1/2 years. So it's a fitting tribute to him as he loved to watch me workng on the bikes. The MadCow is in the garage too, waiting for me to finish it off ready for the MOT. I'm pretty much healed from the bad crash in 03, it's only taken 4 operations to fix my hand, I've got around 75% useage, nerve damage in my legs means I'm constantly on painkillers though, but I manage a relatively 'normal' life (those who know me will understand just how that last comment sounds strange) I'm hoping to get up Jack&Jill direction over the summer, so it'd be good to catch up with people. I spoke with XJR Jason a few weeks ago, but so far he's the only person I've managed to get in touch with.
Anyway now I've found the new place I'll stay in touch.

Hello! :smt006

Isn't it customary to get the ales in?

Welcome :smt006

I used to be on the old site as ZZRider, infact I still am on Visordown when my stomach can handle visiting there.

He's now a bit older and should probably change his name to zzzzzzzzzRider ......

Oh, by the way, Hello - I'm not from the old site (sorry) - but nice to virtually meet you and I'll have a 6X if the tab is still open!
