first bike

[nick crisp]

Mine was a Suzuki ZR50 X1. I got it from D & A Rayner motorcycles, where I was working as a Saturday lad; cheap as chips.

It was feckin slow! So slow in fact, that once whilst exiting Gants Hill roundabout in London, a copper on foot waved me over. "Going a bit slow round that roundabout weren't you lad?" he said. To which I just kind of nodded at the bike. "Yeah, see what you mean, on your way then."  :lol

I used to have to tackle North Circular rush hour traffic on it for my last year at school - frightening with all the lorries bearing down on it all the time  :eek

Thanks for reminding me about that one Paul  :rolleyes  :lol
