Morning, Posted in Newbies but thought I would introduce myself here having recently bought a 1998 ST2. Not my first duke having previously had an M900 café racer. Really impressed with the ST so far, and looking forward to picking some brains. Always up for a ride if anyone here is Swindon way. Giler
Unfortunately the Office is one of the few things Swindon is known for, along with the Magic roundabout and a currently sh*te football team!
I was going to take issue with the comment about STFC. But given that we are one position above the drop zone and worse still below Oxford and Brizzle Rovers, sadly, I can only agree!
Not goods days at the Town, I am Swindon born and bred and have followed them since Don Rogers days. Used to go and watch home and away, no more; rather be out on the bike!
I grew up in Trowbridge and Don was my boyhood hero. Has he still got the sports shop? Always a rollercoaster ride following Town. Haven't been for a couple of years, I usually listen on Wiltshire Radio. Miss PdC now!
My wife loves her ST2. She keeps talking about changing it but then cannot be parted from the thing. I lived in Highworth for many years and thought that the magic roundabout was great, a true British invention.
Still got the sports shop, a least PDC was good value! Used to go through Trowbridge a lot, raced motocross at Farleigh o youth and then Trowbridge Pump Festival on same site.
How are you? Unfortunately sold the Monster when I bought a Victorian house, it turned into a central heating system! Only sold it on the premise that I would have first refusal, then he old it on grrrr! Believe it is in Bradford upon Avon now. Liking the ST2, will probably turn into a café race eventually
Ha! Used to go to Farleigh a bit for the Scrambling, as we used to call it and went to the first Village Pump Festival when it was held at The Lamb in Trowbridge. Your Monster now resides in my place of birth! PdC was indeed good value but those days were unsustainable sadly. At least Power seems to be keeping us in the black.
