    Hi All,

    Sorry I have not given the needed time to lurk and then make friends
    in the group yet. But I was searching the posts and found that some
    people have been put in touch with nice people here to help looking
    over a bike when buying.

    Can I ask for the same kind favour, Paid for naturally at a reasonable
    rate or with goods of your pleasing.

    I live near A406/A10 in north london but i work in Hatfield, and know
    south Herts pretty well. If any one willing to help is in or near lake
    side that would be perfect, or I could pick-up from north london east
    london or Herts/Essex.

    My first (and only) Bike was CG125 Which I liked alot but it got
    stolen Last Year. Now that my dearly beloved has passed her test and
    we cant really afford two cars so Its a perfect excuse, Ahem! sorry
    "need" for me to get back on two wheels.

    We may have some time cos the seller wants to run his ebay auction
    through, And if he cant sell it in few days then will call me.

    Kindest regards

    Sharkyriq

    By the way thanks to a ton of spam i dont check the yahoo email so
    please reply directly to this thread which I will check daily.

    Ooooh, having actually read what you wanted, I'm not sure I'd trust me
    (damn this Bombay Sapphire is good). I'll happily look at a bike for you,
    if time is right, but if it turns out to be a dog, and I split the profits
    with the seller, the problem is yours......

    Not unless I really wanted to :). TBH I have no intention of shafting you,
    but if the bike's a dog, I may well not spot it. All I can do is look,
    listen and ride (kind of)
    I work for myself, so it's pretty much 'catch as catch can'
    Erm pass. Do a good deed for someone else suits me. If you really need to
    express gratitude in a material way, I'm partial to a good scotch.
