Rider Profiles
Scooterboys, Darkside & Farside
Friends, workmates and aquaintances...

... in fact anyone that will talk to me for 30 minutes

The Profiles Pages at South of Watford feature a seriously wide ranging bunch of people with an even wider choice of transport. There are however two common threads; Firstly I know these guys and secondly they all have a set of two wheels. From geared vintage scooters, to modern twist & go's and, from way, way over in the left field of the farside, bloody big motorbikes.

Don't let that put you off - read what they have to say about the open road first. (all these profiles coming over the next few weeks)

Jim Robertson - Big time Gooner and Harley rider
We all remember the summer of 1976 (Well us oldies do), it was an absolute scorcher which made the paper round all the more bearable. I managed to save £140 pound and buy my first bike, a 2 year old Yamaha RS 100 and I've never looked back since. >>More
