Just thought I'd drop in and introduce myself - I'm Chris Newbigging, Features Editor on Practical Sportsbikes magazine. If you've picked up issue 5, you'll recognise me as the chap restoring the RGV250K. I've also got a TZR250 2MA YPM racer, and there's an NSR250 MC21 in the family, so I'm something of a two-stroke nut Very Happy

If anyone is popping along to the London show this weekend, I'll be manning the Practical Sportsbikes stand on Thursday and Saturday (with the rolling chassis of the RGV on show), so pop by and say hello.

Cheers

Chris

Welcome Chris. We've been fans of the new magazine since Issue 1 and have helped out with a couple of features so far. Keep up the good work, and get some pics of your bikes posted up. Wink

Can't make the show personally but if anyone does, please post some photos up on here. Very Happy
