Welcome to our Forum Duncan, I know it will grow on you! I'm not a bike fan and given the preferences imposed by Canadian birth Ice Hockey is my game of choice. I do have a great admiration of your fair land though, did a 15 day vacation there several years back in a rented vehicle from Skye to the Spey and pretty well every where between, loved every minute and would return in a heartbeat! Oh, and your beer is superb as well as the whisky!!
You'll find all the help, encouragement, and advice you need to get going in the WW.I Aircraft niche here, enjoy!
Cheers,
Lance
