Hi Everyone

Post by vrbryan » Wed Jul 27, 2011 3:49 pm

Hey guys. My name is Bryan.
I found out about FWMR on 7/16 at the RideSmart track day in Cresson. There was a tent setup with you guysss banner and here I am. I haven't ridden out at the track yet but I went out to just check it out and get my suspension setup by Roger the suspension guy :-D I want to get out there asap. That looks like alot of fun.
A bit of my riding history...I have been riding Standards and Cruisers on and off since I was 17 am now 37. I traded my Honda Shadow for a 07 GSXR 600 early this year. I should have done this ALOT sooner. These bikes are soo much fun to ride. For the past 2 years I have ridden group rides with a Honda group out of Grapevine and love the group ride experience. This is what brings me here. I hope you all will have me.

Anyway there's me. Here's my bike. :cool:

I look forward to riding with alot of you guys and gals.

Welcome to the wonderful world of sport bikes. Sorry it took you so long to find it but you did and that's what's important. :)

We have a bike night tomorrow, just an excuse to get out of the house and hang out.

No rides currently planned but we should probably be having one before long.

Thanks for the welcomes and invite to bike night. Are most of you guys going to ride out there or do most cage it to bike night? You know....because of the heat and all :)

Quite a few ride out there and some cage it (and bring the spouse and plan on drinking). If you plan on drinking, I would cage it...unless you want to show your baby off to the guys :)

Well its actually a kuryakyn rack bag. I bolted it to an extra passenger seat I found. I needed something big enough to carry my laptop to and from work along with lunch and all my other crap. Works pretty good for what it is. A little bungee over the top for good measure and vroom off we go... :cool:

howdy! glad u found the boards. so sorry no one had a card to give you or chat with you. next time just stop on by. we're a lively bunch and most random people that walk over everyone tends to associate with me (that i had something to do with them coming over). i used to be their waitress several years back, and am their designated portable waitress and kind of have this thing of bringing people around.

any ways, i'm sorry you're going to miss my bf :D (grinner). he's working long hours for a while so he won't be out tonight, but i know he'll hit you up after reading your intro. :-D

hope you have a good rest of the week.
