Meant to say I'm excited and can't wait! Test rode yesterday

Welcome and congratulations, when do you get her and the colour?

Welcome

Great choice of bike I am sure you will love it.

Thanks for the welcomes.
The bike is white, with black crash bars - she's a 2012 model, with 640 kms. I get her 10 January.

welcome ( from a newby myself) and must say a brave man coming on a uk forum from Sydney the day Australia knocked us out of the world cup ( rugby union ) I suspect you are an aussie rules man ?

stay keen ,

Rugby Union is my thing but I'm an All Black supporter - once a Kiwi...
You have my commiserations about England's exit.
Hope the ABs don't choke in the quarter finals again against France.
What CR do you have? Great bike, very unappreciated in Australia - a sales flop. I don't care because the bike suits me.

 :187:I take delivery of my CR 2015 tomorrow! .let you know more thoughts thereafter.......so no expert on the CR ..but I have Been a supporter / member of Harlequins ( at twickenham) for longer than I can remember! So an old school amateur rugby man .. Not sure I enjoy this mountain man flat line defence game as much .. ESP as I am only 5'9 and couldn't even make scrum half these days!
Think it will be your W.Cup everyone else is dropping players faster than a convent girls draws! ...

Congratulations on getting your new CR tomorrow! Brilliant!
I went to the Harlequins ground in the 70s to see Taranaki play, but I think they were playing London Welsh there.
I didn't play rugby after I left school. I was in the 1st XV at school but playing the violin took precedence after that.
I'm a Hawkes Bay supporter btw. Must check to see if they retained the Ranfurly Shield against Waikato last weekend...
All the best with your riding - I lived at Halstead near Sevenoaks and would love to ride a bike round that area

Ahh! the great days and names of the 70's London Welsh ... Nostalgia rules!
as for Sevenoaks roads ... ride them regularly - Ide Hill / riverhead / Kemsing  twisty back roads .. great fun ... bit different to where you are now !

[musicdpk]

Beautiful country around there...
Plenty of great roads and good scenery here too - takes a while to get to them, just like in London. Royal National Park, which I drive regularly, and Old Pacific Highway are very popular.
