Hi Onions and welcome to the madhouse that is EuroKClub (what is it about that name that attracts people from all over the world and, indeed under it?)

Brian (who wonders what folks ride when the weather is 99.5% sun compared to the K's 30% rideability)

Welcome Aussie.
Perfect roads for bikes there indeed.
There were many more Australians in the old forum , may I suggest when meeting with any K riders please spread the world that thanks to some people from the old upper world site is up and running.
Do you remember the one with the tricycle attached to the K?
Easy that Brian, they use more that one bike.

Welcome Mr Onions to the site you will enjoy I am sure.

Now you have put us all in a slight conundrum because we will probably have to change our name now. We are EuroK because we have Costas but now we have Onions who hails from 'down under' what are we to do? Hmmmmmmm.

Cheers,

Bob

P.S. We still have a better cricket team than yours ::)
Are we there yet? I said ARE WE THERE YET? I SAID ARE WE THERE YET?!!

I love that one-wheeled trailer that tracks perfectly and leans with the bike! Assie shade-tree mechanicing at its best.

You woul be quite correct in that assumption I see the Americans in one state have brought in the firing squad because European manufacturers won't sell them the lethal injection chemicals!!! But the former would be just fine for anyone caught using such. ;D
