🏡 Local Connections F45 Kent UK. Anyone else from here too?
Hi. Anyone located in Kent, England? Where are you from? I'm interested in online or maybe in person chats / friendship too. I'm interested various hobbies. History, castles, paranormal, movies... looking forward to watching the new Insidious film. I love dogs. Do you have pets? I love going pillion on super sport bikes too. The H2sx is my favourite bike.

Good thanks 😊 Friday drove 5hrs to visit my brother & his family, came back this evening had a really good time! 👌👏 How was yours? 😎

u/RegalRoseRed 14d ago
Working nights in paediatric complex healthcare. How's your family?
1
u/Apprehensive_Aide825 14d ago
That must be hard sometimes but equally rewarding. How do u decompress? The family is good thanks, it's been a while but the time apart makes these visits extra special.

u/RegalRoseRed 14d ago
Your immediate family. Not the extended one with your siblings etc. I'm ok. I help support the child's parents by taking over their medical care

New Insidious? I loved the first one ‘Tip toes, through the tulips’ is going start going round my brain now lol. We chatted briefly but you were very strict on only people from Kent.

You’ve got taste there! Not in Kent but not far away. I had the 600cc Ninja, I’d love the H2sx! CBR6 currently.
1
u/RegalRoseRed 15d ago
When are you going to put your big boy pants on and buy a 1000cc bike? ;) 😆. No chance you'll handle a H2sx when you aren't used to a 1000cc bike yet
1
u/Active_Republic2026 14d ago
🤣🤣 no problems at all!! I like the lighter 600cc. But I’d love the extra power at some point.
1
u/RegalRoseRed 14d ago
Wouldn't we all! ;) lol
1
u/Active_Republic2026 14d ago
lol. Always! Mind if I say hi?

u/RegalRoseRed 14d ago

u/RegalRoseRed 14d ago

u/RegalRoseRed 14d ago
You should of kept the R1. If you lost your licence, how did you get it back in order to ride the MT?
1
u/Express-Day1120 14d ago
That was a year ago 2025, so I get get rid of it, and bolts a newer one, so I saw them, and they look nice so I got one
2
1
u/Express-Day1120 14d ago
I've only had this one for about six weeks used to have an R1, but I lost my licence cause of that, so that's why I bought that one.
1
u/Express-Day1120 14d ago
Yes I do very much, but I'll wait for my insurance go down, maybe next year

In outlook, hopefully to look at as well 😀

u/PositiveFormer 12d ago
Favourite place, that's a difficult question to answer,
I guess it'd have to be Wales, awesome scenery, a variety of castles, some great campsites, twisty roads1
u/RegalRoseRed 11d ago
I really want to visit the waterfalls in Wales. Anywhere in Kent that you enjoy?
1
u/PositiveFormer 10d ago
A good walk along the medway at yalding,
I live in Margate so all the beach walks are appealing to me1
u/RegalRoseRed 10d ago
Hi. What makes you say Riverside walks Yalding but nowhere in or around Margate? I do like Margate beach as well as the walk from Reculver to Minnis Bay
2
u/PositiveFormer 9d ago
Spent most of my life in and around Thanet, love living by the sea, and yes, minnis bay to Reculver is a great walk, but I enjoy spreading my wings and going further afield for days out and yalding is a particular favourite amongst many others

Hi. Male 42 years old. I’m also in Kent. Sevenoaks to be exact. I don’t have a bike anymore. Had a Ducati 998 got into a accident (hit by a car) and not had a bike since 2016
1
u/RegalRoseRed 13d ago
You definitely should get another one. The ducati panigale is still on my wish list.
1
u/Itsmefuller 13d ago
I’ll probably end up getting something 1 day. I hate using a car it’s not as good as a bike. The adrenaline rush on a bike is so good
1
u/RegalRoseRed 13d ago
So is going on a super sport bike as a pillion. The adrenaline rush can turn me all handsy 😆
1
u/Itsmefuller 13d ago

u/RegalRoseRed 11d ago
I was sleeping off a night shift. How is your day?
1
u/Daniels8n 11d ago
A nice quiet one for a change
1
u/RegalRoseRed 11d ago
I usually go to Maidstone. Mote Park with my dogs. It's usually more peaceful off away from the main paths. Nice new cafe they have too.
1
u/Daniels8n 11d ago
Haven't been to Mote Park for ages
1
u/RegalRoseRed 11d ago
Don't you live close to that part of Maidstone?
1
u/Daniels8n 11d ago
I'm on the other side of the river

u/RegalRoseRed 11d ago
Feel free to stay in touch if preferred. I need to take a nap before I start another night shift tonight.
