    Hey Guys

    Just thought I'd say hi. Just picked up a 2013 Repsol Blade after 12 years off bikes, since a big off at the Ring. Looking forward to getting back into the swing of things.

    Loving the Blade, bikes have certainly improved in the 12 years I've been away. Still feel rusty, but loving being out on the road again!:D

    Tony
