Hi Everyone,
It's been a few years since my last bike. Most of my friends and family reckon I'm having a midlife crisis. After working on the railway for over 19 years I've had to leave because I went on to insulin for diabetes, and I'm using part of my payoff to buy the bike of my dreams, the best bike to come from Honda, the Blackbird. It should be with me in two weeks time. Pictures etc; to follow. I live in Stockton and only became aware of Teesside Bikers from a Google search. I hope to get to meet many of you once the season starts.
Andy

Hi Andy, welcome to TB's. Take care and get used to your bike steadily. There's an immense amount of power with a fairly long chassis. Stay safe.

Hi Look forward to hearing you 'crow' about your new Blackbird in person sometime Hi welcome matey, see you on a ride out or down the pitstop. Kev do you know how people have given the Blackbird 'raven' reviews. Well that's what people 'jay'.

Triumph. Like 'normal' bikes. But with 'umph'. And more 'umph'. And even more 'umph'.

Hi Look forward to hearing you 'crow' about your new Blackbird in person sometime Oh, I dunno. With three declared Blackbird owners already, it could be 'murder'.

The collective pronoun could also be a horde, hover, muster, or a parcel but if you all flocked off together in unison would that be a murmuration, or is that only starlings ?

This is the one I've chosen. A little more than I expected to pay, but does have FSH and is alarmed which will save a few quid on insurance as well. Mileage is 50k but is in stunning condition. Should be with me this time next week. Can't wait to meet you all.
