Hi im Davy

[davytelford]

Hi there my name is David but my friends call me "Davy" feel free to call me that im 25 i live in Telford Shropshire (cackhole) but i was born in Adelaide South Australia im openly gay but most people know that

My love of all things 2 wheels came about in 1992 when my father took me to a bike race all the greats of racing were there Wayne Gardner on his 500NSR Barry Sheene signed my hat magic

We moved to the UK when my grandad had passed away very sad but when we were cleaning his garage we found masses of old trial and motocross photos wish id met him my dad said he was the best

My first bike was a Vespa PK50 which did all of 24mph lol that sadly ended up under a bus that didnt see me "suprise suprise" lol
after the Vespa followed a dismal spell of unreliable mopeds worst of them was a chinese 125 after the 6th breakdown i pushed it into the river and walked home

2 years after that a friend called me and offered me a rare 250NSR
it was free so i took it and its been in my garage ever since lol
i will finish it one day as i want it to be a Gardner rep

I have never ridden a bike over 600cc as i have lost a few close friends who owned big bikes so its put me off bit . When i turned 20 i had my 1st and only big accident it was pitch black i was riding home to see my boyfriend and i hit a tractor which pulled out in front of me with no lights on i think someone had my back as i only suffered minor injurys.

I do not own a road legal bike im currently going to college doing a media studies course and semi building a tuktuk
and luckily joined this great site

so thats me i think we should go to a few shows to advertise this site as id like it to grow too

bigger bikes are nothing to be scared of, only a lack of throttle control. Seriously i drove small bikes for age's, when i finally gave in an got a normal sized bike (cbr6) i suddenly discovered that the bigger bikes are actually safer, all the extra weight give's you more time to react when for example the wheel skips on a small bit of gravel, T'd be on my arse with any of my smaller bikes.

My worst bike off's have been on mopeds My excuse is they don't handle right like a proper bike.

Big bikes are as safe as the rider And a sorted NSR 250 will give many a 600 a run for it's money plus has a lack of engine braking being a 2 stroke.

I too would like to see this site grow and the shows idea sounds good.
