New member introductions

[COOKIE]

  Hello

Happy new year to you all

well i may as well introduce my self, we don't want anyone panicking  when we meet up and know one knows who i am....happens a lot 

Anyway about me and my killer

My name is jason
I ride a Gs1200R BMW
i been riding for 10+years,and before that had the chance to ride the old  army bikes once in a while many years ago.I am presently with the British armed forces "reserves" and have served 23+ years,at present i am a Cpl (regimental Police) Now called RDS (regimental Duty Staff) and am a BCDT instructor (battlefield casualty drill Instructor),and have other qualifications some with the TTFU.
I have always wanted to be able to use my experience  and knowledge to assist or even help others, and that was one of the main reasons i came to join you guys, and also i spent a day with Steve (that was fun) oh and Tamas.
On trip wise, i have traveled down to morocco,and a few other countries and have also done a solo trip to Venice and back,and i enjoy riding as its one way to escape from some stresses.I also work in the film industry,in front and behind the camera,and also do SFX (special effects and Props)
I am married with one kid (she is 24 years of age).
responsibilities,while away i have been the group  medic for some trips,and usually carried all the gear,but i always like to challenge my self,so try to do any medical advance or normal courses i can may they be online or within a Training center, i recently did a AED online course, just to keep up.
I am handy with most things,but not professional in anything except  two things.one being a squaddie,and the other being there when some one is hurt.

I have a sense of humor, i try not to talk much,and i like to learn new things,Crazy no ,adventures yes  ,multi tasking,depends what it is,and that's me.

Any questions please forward them to my lawyer (JOKING)

Look forward to meeting you all

Welcome Cookie,

I have a sense of humor

That is probably the most sensible thing you're going to say to us - you're going to need it mate

Hi All, My name is Harley (and no, my bike is a Suzuki Bandit).




Passed my bike test back in March this year, completed a BikeSafe day in August where I was directed to IAM and from there joined LAM, passing the advanced test earlier this month with a F1rst.


I attended the Phoenix Toy Run last weekend which is what prompted me to join after seeing the great job the USRs did guiding us all up to Rutherford school.


Looking forward to joining you at some events.

Welcome Harley, good to meet you at the Ace :-)

Hi Harley


Welcome to the forum and to the USRs. Congratulations on your F1rst award!


We are having a social ride/meet up on 11 March with the following details which might be of interest as there will be more time to talk to people than at an actual event. I hope to meet you soon!


We will leave Oakdene Café, [/size]London Rd, Wrotham, Sevenoaks TN15 7RR at 1030 and will finish at Rykas Café, Old London Rd, Box Hill, Mickleham, Dorking RH5 6BY.

Hello All


This is Mark Rowe USRCB



I have just spotted this on the forum and although i have attended a social run and last weekends Kempton to Reading bike run, i will introduce myself


I am still just about working as i own 3 companies but my boys are taking over slowly, so this gives me the time to come and enjoy riding with you all.


I have been riding since i was 8 years old, and have had so many bikes over the years, it would take too long to go through them


I currently ride a BMW S1000XR and my runabout is a Kawasaki ninga 650 which i may use on USR events as my BMW did not like the slow going on cycling events


I passed my IAM's advanced and advanced plus many years ago but have kept my skills up by observing for my local IAM's club, i was also chairman of the club until Dec17 when i decided to give someone else a go


I live on the south coast in a village called Titchfield.


I look forward to getting qualified as a fully fledged USR asap, so will see you at as many events as i can


Cheers
Mark

Welcome Mark, it was good to see you albeit briefly at the weekend and admire your BMW! There's various events coming up over the next few months so I look forward to seeing you again.


Cheers Charles 06
