Greetings from deep dark Anglia!

[R-Johnny]

Hello ladies and gents!

Just a quick one to say hi and introduce myself, im john more commonly known as Rubber Johnny.

Veery new to this riding lark and am currently working through my Das, did my cbt couple of weeks ago and it was great fun.

Am enjoying it all so much at the mo. ( with the possible exception of the 12 weeks i need to wait for my proper bike boots to arrive

Anyways look forward to getting to know everyone and giving my humble opinions where i can.

John

Welcome

12 weeks for boots? Are they being made by one-armed chimps

[R-Johnny]

I think they are waiting for a container ship large enough to carry them over from italy .... curse my size 12 flipper feet!!

[Nick__C]

Welcome

12 weeks does seem rather long though!

Would be a bit fiddly for gears though

Army surplus boots run up to size 12.

Anyway, now that we know your trouser snake shoe size, do you have a bike in mind for after you're licensed up?

Ferret - I have to say those are an attractive option only one thing concerns me and thats the lack of shin protection, however coupled with a pair of £2.99 umbro shinpads and i do believe ill look the proverbial mutz nutz!!

Rogerborg - ive had a few ideas and talked to an experinced friend of mine im leaning toward a ZX6R ( not a brand new one) around the 04/05 mark.
Im open to critique though.

[trikeschick]

Welcome! You should try JTS for boots, they do big sizes i believe good luck with the training and look forward to the updates

Jim - Im more of the coastal direction, the little village of kelsale if ya know it.

Ill bear that in mind if im ever need more experienced eyes cheers bud if i could id karma you good!

As for these boots i think someone has recruited Guybrush Threepwood as they will now arrive by the end of the week !
I quadruple checked the website and it defo says 12 weeks.

On the downside the girlfriend has point blank refused to wear them in bed
