Wow! Thanks to all for a nice welcome, you're all much nicer than the lot on T595.net

I'm still grinning all the time, but I'm being REALLY cautious in the rain, as I'm not sure how sticky my Bridgestones are yet......

I'll keep my eyes peeled for a red 'storm on my travels!

Cheers!
:)

Just don't change down to quick on the Storm when approaching a roundabout or tee junction as it's very easy to lock up the back wheel when most of the weight is on the front :!:
