I’m a 62 year old semi-retired ex Project Manager from the Aviation industry, who, until three years ago lived down in deepest Surrey, but redundancy and the decision to try and retire meant that I’ve dragged my whole extended family up to sunny Cumbria, not too far from Hartside. I got my '81 Darmah in '83 and joined the DOC the same year. Other bikes have come and gone, but my Darmah will always be my Darmah, we have had far too many adventures together - although my Wife insists that it is hers really, but she lets me ride it because she loves me . . .
