Hello from West Wales

Hello everybody, just wanted to say hi. My name's Pete and I've got an immaculate Storm (boasting again) dating from Sept 2002. She's only got 11,000 dry miles on the clock though that is likely to change now I've moved to Wales! Interested to get some feedback, particularly on the dreaded cam chain tensioner but will do that in the appropriate section.
Cheers
Pete

Welcome mate, friendly bunch here loads of info and if I can do my own mcct's and the bike has survived, so far, then I am sure you can. Again lots of help and advice. What do you call West Wales, Whitland and beyond?
Enjoy those nice roads but watch out for plod.

Hi Richard
Oh well past Whitland, practically in the Atlantic - St Davids. Very little plod around here - they get nosebleeds west of Haverfordwest!

Bloody hell - what is this obsession with the colour of my bike?!!!
Sorry saintsman but my Storm would definitely be more at home on the other side of Stanley Park!! For those of you not familiar with the lovely city of Liverpool my bike is a very tasteful blue - sort of turquoisey I would describe it.
I'm not a storm expert by any means but I get the impression it's one of the least common colours? Those hideous vomit-yellow ones seem to be two-a-penny!

St David's, eh?
I was marooned there last year when we missed the sailing to Ireland.
And the annual Welsh weekend camping at Wyeside is definitely on later in the year- check out the trips and meetups section.
Welcome aboard!

Welcome to the club mate. Teal is considered a member of the blue brotherhood, but not like a favoured blood brother, more of a below stairs, out of wedlock, servant girl knocked up by the master of the house sort of brother!
