Hello - London

[gowyn]

New to the board but not Ducs.

Anyway thought I'd stop by and say hi!

Just picked up a '98 900SSFE. Previously owned a Monster, Blackbird, 1150GS and even a Harley.

Found this tucked away in my files, it's a ride report I printed off years ago, not sure if it's still floating around the net but I thought I'd share it if anyone is interested.

Had to scan the pages, sorry.

It describes perfectly our feelings.

Hi Gowyn,

I saw your post and recognized your name and previous bikes. We have met a few times before, I work with your wife.

Looks like you grabbed the FE I was watching on kijiji all summer. Seems like a very good deal.

There is a bit of duc activity here in London. Inglis has been good at putting a couple of events together last year. We had a presence (7 ducs as I recall) at last years London Bike Show in a DOCC booth. Mike H and I have been talking about a monthly coffee night for years but never seem to get it off the ground. Maybe all we need is some interest from a few members or even one new member. If Londoners are interested maybe they will reply to this and we can get something started. I will even suggest a date to start things off - 7pm Tuesday September 14 @ Williams Coffee (Richmond and Central)

Regards,

Chris

Sounds good to me

I'd be in

Yep it was the one on kijiji, turns out he was using the wrong email address

I was the first to call and was out there an hour later

Nice bike, just needs a good clean and fluid change
