Was into motorcycles (how I HATE the term BIKER !!)for many years too old for them now AND too many idiots on road to feel safe on ANY form of two wheeled transport!! Got back into radio /shortwave radio about 5 yrs ago..building sets etc. have large stocks of components (never knew there were so many variations on types) safer then motorbikes!! provided you switch off mains eqpt BEFORE poking around with a screwdriver!!
