Howdy!
What make is your cruiser?
I have a Honley HD3 SE 125 & I have thought about joining rideouts, but don't want to hinder those on faster bikes.

Yeah not the fastest either, but I am still keen on joining some rideouts.
Know any fun routes ?

Re: Newbie
I had a look at those & Keeway Superlights before I got my Honley as I half fancied a cruiser for the seating position, but I thought they looked a little heavy for a 125.Swole_Rider39 wrote:

Not yet as I haven't had that much chance to get out on the bike during daylight hours since I got it at the end of September.Know any fun routes ?
As I live near Saddleworth I've tended to wander aimlessly toward Holmfirth, Halifax and that neck of the woods along with Littleborough, Chapel-En-Le- Frith & so on.
It's not that much fun in the dark though on unlit roads, with quite a poor headlight.
I keep meaning to go and see what the Cat & Fiddle ride is like & generally get out a bit more at weekends now the weather's a bit warmer & we are starting to see more daylight.

Re: Newbie
Sounds like you two need to pick a MacD, agree a date between you and then put a ride out up as an "L" 125 friendly.

Welcome!
The cat and fiddle is great fun even on a 125. Go from Buxton side so it's downhill on the fun part once you're on the run into Mac it's great .

Yes man it is pretty heavy for a 125, but its still pretty good fun to be honest.Bald_Eagle1 wrote:Howdy!

And will definitely organise a 125 friendly route some time soon !
