Hi guys, I'm a newbie, not just here, but in the motorbike world too. Getting to a certain age and looking for a bit more adventure, unfortunately my recovery time is not what it once once so I feel an engine may help. I love my road cycling and especially long distances, did 200+ miles in a day last year, but want to go further. I am looking at getting a touring style bike, but honestly not sure about a load of stuff, if anyone could point me in the right direction it would be really appreciated. Looking for the right type of bike and also the right power. I am a bit of a tight wad so don't really want to buy a smaller bike so I can learn how to ride, without sounding cocky, I am used to being next to trucks and cycling through towns/cities on a push bike, have been driving for almost 20 years and do about 30k miles a year. I am sensible and feel I can control my speed and eagerness. Of course I may be completely wrong and be hugely underestimating this! Its been known! Thanks all
