    HI
    I'm new to the forum and wondering if we have any UK members. Be good to get to meet some other HD owners and share thoughts and ideas on our bikes.

    Hey shingitai,

    I'm not from there and hope you get a group together, good luck.

    I hope I can come back to the UK for a visit again, I enjoyed the month I spent back in 2000. It was in May and it only rained once. After I left the whole town became flooded. I was in Worcester (sp).

    I have one question for you, since you drive on the wrong side of the road, how do you do hand signals? With your right or your left hand? :D

    right or left

    Hi tom
    Look me up if you get over here.. maybe sample some local beer.. :)

    To answer you question... it depends whether i am turning left or right.... Ok so that was a wise crack!

    I rarely use hand signals these days as my Harley has self cancelling indicators.. Great improvement over the old bikes.

    I am down in the South East so we tend to avoid the floods and get decent weather... Not like the Med or Florida but not too bad.. Get a reasonable number of biking days in the year just the chrome takles ages to clean afterwards.

    Cheers

    shingitai,

    There have been several, that I have seen, that are U.K. based riders. Take a look through the members listings and I'm sure you'll find some of them. Good luck!!

    There actually quite a few riders here from your side of the pond, just don't have any sort of list. Many people who sign up here don't put their location in their profile so it's difficult to know. Perhaps those who want to be known will chime in when they see this post.

    The member List

    Thanks Ken
    Hopefully some will chip in with intros ... i will keep visiting to see. Would like to meet someone who does service work but has a flair for performance aspects as my HD has always been a bit lumpy.
    Cheers
