Hello. I've been reading this website for a while and have finally decided to join up.

I'm not old enough to drive yet so for now I ride a 50cc Sym moped:



It's great fun in the bends but on straight roads it feels painfully slow. I'm looking forward to later this year when I can learn to ride a bigger bike or drive a car.

As long as you don't stick neons and a GT rear wing on it, I think you'll get on fine here.

Welcome, sir.

Plenty of people on here have joined at 16 and worked their way up the car/bike ladder to Ferraris and Porsches etc over time.

We're a nice bunch, and all are welcome, if you have petrol in your veins...


Enjoy the site

Thanks for the welcome guys. And no, I'm not going to be fitting neons. In fact I've removed loads of garish 'Sym Racing' stickers from it.

Evening Sam!

I'm 16 too! I'll be driving in August . Heres my toy, same size engine as yours, 50cc. Very slow on straights but reasonably fun on the twisty stuff. Heres some pics of my baby:




A few things have changed since I took those pictures, firstly the exhuast has started to rust and look horrible and I crashed it

Welcome to PH, there aren't many of us scooter riders round here. Hope you enjoy your stay
