Hi I'm ThickBrit, living in the central south-western UK.
Riding since 1978 with a gap for children etc, probably like most of us.
Ride every day to get around the country for work, over the last 5 years or so typically 25-30k a year.
Let my trusty Pan 1300 go in favour of a blue Trophy a week ago.
Couldn't justify the cost of the SE, but had the touring screen and heated grips fitted tothe standard bike.
Still awaiting R&G engine bars to be available and saving up for a top box so partner will feel more secure.
Splashed out on a pair of pannier liners and a fender extender with the last few remaining pennies....
Looking forward to some long trips in 2013.
