Hello from Solihull

[meldrew]

At well well over retirement age just added a Burgman 400 1999, but as new, unused for yonks, and i love it.
Also have a 600 Fazer, and a 1964 Velocette Le all chalk and cheese plus a Citroen 2cv, I am an old petrol head, started off in life as a BSA apprentice, and had a bike ever since.
I am a member of the Kings Norton Motorcycle Club, which caters for anything on 2 or 3 wheels, and meets weekly originated in 1946.
Worked at Copes in Birmingham as a motorcycle mechanic in my early life, and ever since as a hobby.
Hope to enjoy experiences with you all, and clock some miles up.

You might want to change your name. Otherwise people may get confused with a previous forum member that wasn't popular.

My thoughts exactly.
Welcome The New Meldrew.

Unless he bangs on endlessly about push bikes, drinking tea at Bettys and touring Germany on an MZ in the 13th century I don't think we'll get them mixed up.

As an Ami 6 Break owner I'm looking forward to hearing more about this 2CV! And the Velocette... love those

Welcome to the forum, only up the road from me in Stratford.

Thanks Guys, sorry about the name but i don't bang on about push bikes, Bettys, or MZ, so meldrew mk.2.
I have got in depth knowledge of times when you could have a haircut for a shilling, gallon of petrol for half a crown, mini skirts

,  drain pipes and DA haircuts, but would not bore you with the details.
Looking for a Parka with a roundel on the back!!

I feel like I'm destined to inherit the old meldrew's space in life. Swap Nutmeg's for Bettys, and UK for Germany and I'm getting close!

I'm a 2CV enthusiast of old, too (not any longer, too many hobbies, too little time.)

Welcome, but don't be surprised if we add a "not" prefix to your forum name.

Welcome, I have a house in Selly Oak not far from you, nice to hear about the local bike club at Kings Norton. I had a LE Mark3 years ago and was a member of the well run LE owners club.
