    Hi all, new to the forum but not biking, Older rider 62yrs, but a young at hart biker from Bacton in Suffolk. Just picked up my 2015 T100 Bonneville having exchanged my Kawasaki Z800.
    Chalk and cheese but give me the Bonneville every day of the week, looking forward to some great riding on the Suffolk country roads.

    Hello BobM, welcome into a fantastic forum we all hope we will not have to wait to long for them pictures of your new purchase, being a mature experienced rider you knew a Triumph was a excellent machine to own:) in your travels have you ever had a ride to Revved up, Walton-on-the-Naze, Essex or Great Bentley bike meet??

    Hi Peter, Not been to either the Walton or Great Bentley meets but have been to the meet at "New Buckingham" Norfolk throughout the summer, great meet, great bikes as well as excellent curry and chips.

    Welcome Bob, from another 62yo from East Anglia (Dereham) also now riding a T100, Previously a 1994 Sprint 900. If I am honest I preferred the Sprint but it was a little top heavy for me now.
