Hi Michael

Welcome to this forum. I guess you're in PE? There's a few of us S. Africans kicking around here, but mostly in Cape Town.

Hi Michael - welcome, you've come to the right place!

I'm interested in hearing more about what you want to do, and experience to date? The wheeling machine is a great piece of kit, but wouldn't be my first recommendation for someone starting out.
