Hello from Devon

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by Shuttlefish, Nov 20, 2012.

  1. Good evening, afternoon and good morning... I recently bought an 11 plate Multistrada 1200 s Touring a fantastic ride, my last bike was a CBR 1100 xx Blackbird very fast but not as much fun as the Multi... I feel so much more at home on the Multi, and it goes like stink up to a ton 30... I love the way the front wheel wants to become airbourne... and the handling is superb... anyway hello everyone, I look forward to getting to know some of you

  5. I am in Cullompton... there are some good roads around north Devon if you ever fancy a Sunday afternoon bimble
     
  6. Oh yes, I'd be up for that!
    I only moved to Devon earlier this year and haven't learnt the area yet. I'm down in Newton Abbot, so we should plan something for when the sun comes out :upyeah:
     
  7. My mobile no is 07807046228 cheers, nick
     
  8. Right-on ---- I'll send you a text.
     
  9. Got to be done... they are so comfortable, I hope you enjoyed it, I guess you took the A303. I am off to Manchester north on Friday hopefully it will stop raining at some point.
     
  10. Hello shuttlefish and welcome. Lovely part of the country you live in!
     
  11. My home town. Family and kids still there. I'll be down on the bike regularly so may get to meet up. My favourite route is Newton, Ashburton, Princetown, Plymouth, South Hams to Dartmouth, cross the ferry to Kingswear then coast road Paignton, Torquay, Teignmouth and back to Newton. I'm envious already.......may have to move back down:upyeah:

  12. what time did you leave for Exeter Tony? 3 of us went to the meet near Salisbury that morning! I got carb icing a few times.
     
  13. On the road at quarter to eight. Temperature gauge was reading zero most of the way down but hit a high of nine later in the day. Came back up A35, A31, M27, M3. I knew there was a Monster meet but didn't see any on the roads.
     
  14. Hello and welcome
