captf Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Hola all! Recently got myself a 12 plate YBR125 [even though I have my mod 2 very soon] primarily for commuting, so I thought I'd join in here. I'm Farrell, living in Manchester, but originally from those lands up North called "Scotland" And, I hope to gain some wisdom from you all [shiny side goes on the bottom, right?] during my visits here Now, I just need to decide on a profile picture...

bippo Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Welcome! I used to rent a place in Monton. Living Glossop way now though. I also had a YBR, cracking bike - enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captf Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 The only reason to go through Glossop is when heading for Snake Pass! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bippo Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Yes some great roads to be had in the Peak. I'd regularly head out for 100-odd mile jaunts in that area on my YBR - great practice and great fun! Happy to head out for a ride whenever, just give us a shout.
