hi all

Post by iRglen »

Thought i should say hello to one n all.
My first VTR, but after a life of 4 pots im not sure i can ever go back after a v twin
And in 3 weeks it will be going from north London in a ferry to Bilbao, through the Pyrenees mountains, down to Barcelona for my wedding. Then a 2 week honeymoon through the south of Spain and back home again.
As you can imagine im pretty excited about the whole thing, and yeah the wedding too .....

she says its not that bad, but then ... latino butt you see :) the foot pegs are the tiny silver dots just above the cans. it will be a bit better with the top box on i guess, at least it will give her something else to hang on to
