Another Tassie newbie
« on: October 14, 2013, 09:53:20 PM »
 Hi my name is Philip I am from Hobart , I have purchased a 02 ST1100 ex police bike back in June after selling a 02 750 Moto Guzzi , the Guzzi was a nice town bike but nothing like the ST1100 on a long ride , I could not be happier with the choice I have made an excellent and comfortable bike.

Welcome Philip from the NT crew :KissBlow It's a shame you weren't on board a couple of weeks ago when I was down in sunny (cough, cough, splutter, splutter) Hobart.  I got to catch up with a few of the Tassie members while I was there

Welcome Philip - keep an eye out for some upcoming OzSTOC rides with the Tassie Members. They're a great bunch as well as living in Australia's "Mecca" for riding country.

Thanks for the intro.

G'day Philip, from the "Tasman Peninsula" :hatwave.......wow, we're certainly gaining members in Tassie, I think you make it eleven!!

If ever you look like travelling down our way, (Nubeena) give us a hoy and we'll catch up. With warmer weather on the way, and daylight saving giving us super long days, we're sure to be getting in many more ride days in the coming few months, so hopefully we'll be able to catch up soon! :grin
There are many paths to the top of the mountain.....but we all need to find our own way!
