Getting There

Postby herrman » Thu Jun 12, 2014 6:49 pm

Alan had his first ride on his bike today since his troubles began last September :D Only out of the garage and a little way down the street but it is a start. He is hoping to take it for MOT on Saturday and then to start riding again.

tanneman,
Alan who is known by many here has had some serious health issues which stopped him from riding. I am pleased to say that yesterday he did take his bike for its MOT and is now looking forward to getting out and about on 2 wheels once again :D Not ready for any major trips yet as he is likely to have more rounds of surgery soon but has set his target to be at Hawes in September on his bike.

Peter.
