    Hello All,

    My name's Mike and im new to Triumph ownership, though I've been a biker since the mid-70s. I've just become the owner of 2015 Thruxton Ace Cafe special, and I'm absolutely loving it. If im honest it's renewed my love if riding for the sake of it. I keep looking for reasons to nip out on it, much to Mrs Mike's amusement.
    When I'm not out on my Thruxton you'll find me fixing rich blokes aeroplanes, playing bass guitar and double bass, and riding a blood bike as a member of Herts and Beds SERV.

    Welcome aboard Mike, I'm also a first time Triumph owner after yearning for a Speed Triple since the launch of the first 1050's, am now chuffed to be the proud owner of a 2015 model, hats off to you on the blood bike front and my son would talk to you for hours as he's a very keen and competent guitarist, he has his first big gig in Camden tomorrow evening, enjoy the forum and your new steed.
