started at 16 and been a kid ever since, bikes are so much fun, trouble is because of your lankyness you are restricted to which bikes you will find comfy,


my mate (oops who do i sound like now!!) is a similar build and he has a R1 which he finds comfy but i strongly suggest you work up to that style of bike or you will get yourself into all sorts of probs and will have a few moments! as no amount of cbt can prepare you for a pocket rocket.

Now that's a funny picture... At least it gave me a good laugh on a dreary Monday morning. I would have paid to see you going 'round the cone, O Lanky One.......
