Newbie from Essex

Hi everyone, I collected mine from Ariel last week and am enjoying driving round the wilds of Essex. Anyone else out there from West Essex/NE London?

I've decided that bikes, while being the best fun going, could really do with a bit more grip and decent brakes, hence the Atom. Off on a course tomorrow at North Weald Airfield learning how to go a bit smoother round the corners ...

No doubt I'll catch up with some of you over the summer.

Hi, Richard.

Welcome to Atom ownership. Enjoy your day with Andy Walsh.

I'm based in Braintree if you ever fancy a hoon. Picked up my third Atom last week and have only managed to cover 800 miles.

Also take a look at 'the season opener' at Bedford 5 April. There'll be a few Atoms there and some 'experienced' drivers to show you the ropes, if you need it.

Cheers,
Rob.

Thanks for the messages guys. I've got a supercharged one. Will stick a picture up when I get round to it, but don't you know what they look like

Had a fab day with Mark at North Weald as Andy is out of action temporarily, at least I know how to spin it ...

Not sure I can get to Bedford, but will try to make it, otherwise see you around!

HI Richard

Welcome to Atom ownership, it's a great experience.

I'm in Brentwood, if your out and about and want company.

I've done a Weald day and it certainly allowed me to get a better idea on how far you can keep it planted before it lets go, important for knowing when to reign it in when out on the road

However, did discover after a big lunch at the nearby pub with everyone else, it wasn't just the car that was spinning.

Will be collecting mine next week, another Essex guy (Rochford, nr Southend).

Seems "appropriate" to have booked a double-day trackday at the 'ring before even seeing the car

Been to north weald and Bedford so far.
Just enjoying the car so much, thanks to the lovely weather we are having.
