Returnee Faces old & new . . .

Jono, Paul, Collin and even Pete (Strag,Whiney,Eccles & Fundercat), to name but a few. It's great to see you all on the forum again. It's just a shame it had to be under such sad circumstances.

Now your back, I hope you catch up with what's going on, and perhaps join in if work~time~family allow

Cheers
Tel

Alright boys

Well here's another - a big hello to Tel, Bea, Tony et al Funnily enough was looking at the France/Germany trip photos the other day, and I still have all the Assen pics on Facebook. Good times.

Hi Tel - hope that you and Bea are well...

I had a thought yesterday that it had been ages since I'd last looked in at the site, and that it would be good to trying to catch up on news. Thought there might be an update on how Kev was doing; I wasn't expecting to come across anything like the news about Gail which has somewhat shocked me.

Still got the R6, and it's even taxed and MOT'd at the moment; just need to find time for a major garage sort out so that I can get it out the door; the poor thing hasn't seen daylight so far this year.

Cheers

Pete

Hi Mike. Good to hear from you again. Just a pity about the circumstances.

Hope you are well. All is good this end (having fully recovered from my bad off a year ago), life has changed a lot in the last few years though.

Tony

Hello mate, glad to hear you're good despite an off. We'll have to have a chat, my life has been up and down as well! You on facebook?

Facebook? What's that? lol. Seriously though, nope. Don't do facebook.

Can be contacted via email if you like topcatbones at aol dot co dot uk.

Tony

the boys are back in town
pete

Will drop you a mail. Will be staying on here though - amazingly active and I can't believe how many cats there still are out there!

Hi Mike (my mate martin ~ if you remember ).

I'm sure you've seen some of the familliar names bandying around. Lots of new(er) names to you too , though they are the forum "now" that's what I call 2013
The forum has done very well, . . . and I'm so chuffed it is going on strong. A testiment to the good people who frequent the site.

You still riding ? What's your steed these days ? Perhaps if you get the chance, you could come to one of the something for the Weekend rides ? Keep a keen eye on yer chips if you do though

Cheers
Tel

:-) hello Tel! Yep still riding, swapped the GSXR750 for a Triumph Street Triple in 2010 though. Would love to claim it was for something other than 'it was starting to hurt'!

Lots to tell you, would love to come on a ride at some point. I'll drop you a PM. Great to hear from you, say hi to Bea.

Right I've sent you both a PM - not sure if it's gone because it's sitting in my outbox rather than sent messages?

It will sit in the outbox until read Mike, once read it will show in your sent box which is actually a very handy feature.

did reply Mike but lost the lot just as I was finishing.

Dodgy laptop and keyboard. Will reply again tomorrow night.

Tony

Doh! Would it be easier if I gave you my address and you used pen and paper? ;-)

And thanks Robert - that is useful as you say:)

Hi all,

Thanks for the welcome (back), Tel. It's a shocking, awful reason that's brought us back here! It's nice to see some familiar names again though.

Tam and I only have the one bike between us now, which is her Gixxer 6 (the one she came to Welshpool on in the Alstare Corona colours). I can't believe we're down to one bike nowadays, having had 5 in the garage for quite a while! Sadly, finances have forced us to whittle the fleet down but at least we've managed to hang on to the Gixxer.

I hope we can catch up with people on here again although just now I'm struggling with the thought of riding on the roads again. I'll be sticking around though.

Welcome back Col,

It is indeed a very tragic about Gail.

Yeah, money tight all over buddy. You have a PM by the way

I didn't know I had a PM. Got it now, ta. Strange thing is, there was no pop-up window or e-mail to tell me I had one, even though both of those options are selected in my preferences.

Hmm, you may have pop ups blocked . . . dunno about the email thingy . . . but thats standard for a ludite like me

Hey Mike and Tony!

Haven't talked to / seen / heard from you in like forever!

How you guys doing?

Shame you didn't come on the alps trip this year. Just returned last night and had a blast! Will post up a few pics in a moment...

Though the ride home was a bit damp... Wettest I've ever got outside a swimming pool! Even waterproofs didn't do much.

Would be great to hear from you again!

Thomas

Hi Thomas, wondered where you had got to.

Will drop you a PM tomorrow night.

Tony

Hi Everyone!

It's been ages since I was here last. Site now bookmarked so I'll be popping in more regularly now.

Graeme

We've just been killing time till you got back......Good to see you back FastKat

YOoooo
