New from Oxfordshire
« on: February 03, 2019, 21:50:43 »
Hello all,  just to say Hello from Oxfordshire. I  purchased a high mileage vstrom 650 back in September from my brother in law. Had it 3 days then went to Assen for BSB and couldn't fault it. Was supposed to be a winter hack/short term bike but I can't see myself moving on anytime soon. So on the look out for luggage and ideas for trips away!

Hello Pip,  at last someone else from "sunny Oxfordshire".
I joined myself earlier this year, your not too far away from me, I'm just north of Burford, maybe get to meet up later in the year, as yet no contact with other Oxon members.
The blokes I've already had contact with with seem to be a great bunch, so roll on the better weather, I'm getting withdrawal symptoms with this weather.
Cheers for now
John
