Hello.

My name is Greg, I am from Wolverhampton but grew up around Redditch/Studley. Have just sold my Gsx 600F and am looking to get a ZXR 400 for the summer.

Really fancy a H2 model in trade mark red/black.

Thanks guys. masterofinsanity I bought my first house in Tillington Close, Winyates East. Prior to living in Studley I lived in Rectory Road - Headless Cross. Redditch is a fantastic place and I would move back tomorrow. Wolverhampton sucks big time.

From what I remember there used to be a couple of bike shops. Knotts and a smaller bike shop futher on down Evesham Road towards the town centre. I know Knotts has gone, is the other bike shop still there?

No not Grahams, is was ran by a couple of hell's angels types. There was a furniture store next door to it, before the Montville Hotel - if memory serves...

Probably. And there used to be a bike place where Blockbuster is now (unless that is where you meant), at the top of St George's by Halfords.
