Hi All.

sorry to have not contributed for a while and hello to old pals.

I lost my wife a couple of years back and it knocked me for six.
Taken ages to get my bearings.
I have lost all my confidence and haven't been near my bikes for a coupla years. The r1100s is still on a hoist in my garage from when I fitted the Scott Hartley triple clamps - never been used.

Anyway, rather than harp on woe is me etc I just wanted to say hi again and a heads up that some very nice parts will be up for grabs soonish as I'm putting the bike back to bog to sell off as i can't do it justice any more

Regards,

Charlie

Hi Charlie - thanks for popping in and so sorry to hear that things have been so difficult for you since your loss.

Good to see you're still up & about though, and please feel free to 'pull up a chair' on this forum anytime. :)

Hi Charlie,
sorry to hear about your loss. That is very sad to hear.
Are you sure you want to sell up? The good weather is almost here.
I'm just wondering if biking again would give you something to look forward to and take your mind off things for a spell?
I'm up for a bimble around if ya want?

Hi Charlie
First let me tell you how sorry i am for you regarding your bereavement. I wish you well in getting yourself back on a even keel. As has been said , maybe getting back into biking will help in some way. No harm in giving it a go. As I remember , you like to tinker with your bikes.
Anyway, whatever decision you make I wish you all the best .
Regards
Gus

Hi Charlie, really sorry to hear of your loss, I cannot even begin to imagine what you've been through, It puts things into perspective and shows us what is really important, and biking isn't one of them. having said that, I'd love the chance to meet you again and buy you that pint I owe you (remember our after hours drinks in the Glan Aber hotel a few years ago?)

All the best

Steve
