Hi all at RDLCCrazy. I have just joined the forum and look forward to meeting you all. I live in Ontario, Canada, been here since 92", originally from Glasgow (Cumbernauld). Rode LC's for a number of years when I was but a lad! Now I have purchased a 82' LC and am lovin the drug I once craved.....2 stroke! It's either in your blood or it ain't, nothing in between!  |

Welcome to the forum. My wife's cousin is from Cumbernauld, he had to have pioneering surgery on a smashed up knee (bike accident) you may remember it.

Welcome to the forum. My wife's cousin is from Cumbernauld, he had to have pioneering surgery on a smashed up knee (bike accident) you may remember it. I remember it very well! I was in a honda civic driving behind him when that happened. Nasty one! If you talk to Dan, ask him about being on the back of my LC with his stookie on, going round the Greenfaulds roundabout! Ouch!! |

Welcome to the forum, wish I was living in Canada.
I go to AG Barr at Cumbernauld to service test equipment there. Usually stay at The Boat House at Auchinstarry Marina. Great food.

Welcome in. I live in Cumbernauld, been here most of my life. When were you here and where abouts were you. Steve Hi Steve, I lived in Lomond court, Condorrat from 1973 till 1992. Strangely I have never lived in Condorrat. Been in Cumbernauld since 72 ( I was 3 ) and have lived my way through North Carbrain, Kildrum, Whitelees, Kildrum again, Seafar, Greenfaulds and Now Balloch. What made you leave for Canada ( not that there is anything here to stay for ) Steve |

Must be a different age group or maybe just a different crowd. Not many I knew from school stuck with bikes. Knew Ian Roles and drooled over Smiddy's lc's ( bouncer with the muscles from reflections) Steve |

Small world I only recently joined the forum and I stayed in Cumbernauld from 1967 until 1983 LC owner from 81 stayed at Skye Dr used the circular garages. My sister has recently moved back and its her ex LC I've been rebuilding.
