New Addiction (cliché band name?)

Post by ltmiii » Sat Nov 02, 2013 10:59 am

Hello! My name is Troy and I ran across the forums looking for other riders in the Ft Worth area. I recently picked up my first street/sport bike and I don't have the words to express just how much fun it is! Looking forward to meeting more enthusiasts at upcoming events!

Welcome.
Keep an eye in the rides section. Something may popup for the motorcycle show next weekend.
And I applaude your confidence in being probably, the only rider in DFW to sport a cape. :)

Welcome the forums. Your first street bike is a BMW S1000RR? I'm going to assume you've ridden before...

@Shaun - Planning on it this month @ Cresson if weather permits. (Nov 16/17) I've heard great things about Ridesmart, so I'll be signing up as we get closer to the "actual" weather forecast.

@Nitzer - Rode dirt bikes, just not street bikes. After a fair amount of research, I went with the BMW for the safety features.

Something about sport bike and safety features in the same sentence make me chuckle.
