    I will be picking up a mint RR5 in 2 weeks once I have got time to go and get the cash from the bank. Its been 7 years since I last rode on the road apart from the odd blast on mates bikes so I am hoping for good weather this year so I can get plenty of miles under my belt. Hopeing to do a couple of big trips in the UK and Europe this year too. Hope to pick up plenty of good tips on here and solve any problems I may have with your help.

    Welcome to the forum. They're a friendly bunch in Lancs and even put up with Ex-northerners coming to play with them every once in a while

    Perhaps you know Daznorthwest, proper nice guy from there. Done lots of riding round there on my way through Waddington and on up to the Bridge, Settle, Hawes.

    Love the road from Settle to Hawes, used to be my favourite mid week blast. Can either turn left in Hawes to the bridge or keep going to Layburn and then Rippon. Lived in Clitheroe all my life so will probably know or recognise him

    Welcome dude you will fit in well here.
    The FireBloke is " The Old Man On The Moors " for Lancashire ,so a Summer meet should be on the cards with a chippy tea in his beloved Hawes.
