Im finally here!

Post by Envy » Sun Nov 23, 2014 8:57 pm

Hello all! My name is Anthony.
After reading and waiting for a few months I have finally joined the forum. :D Yes I have been creeping a while waiting till I got my baby up and running, which I took out to ride with some of you all today. Moved out here 4 years ago from SoCal which is where I started riding 11years ago. Took the MSF course then as well, but lost my card in the move. First bike was a 98 GSXR-600. Got married and she said it had to go. :( now that im happliy divorced I figured it was time to get another bike. So I bought a non running bike, an XJ750 Maxim, fixed it up, rode it a little then sold it to get what I really been wanting, my current bike 06 GSXR-750.

Welcome Anthony, congrats on the nice bike.
Where in SoCal did you move from? I moved here from L.A. and almost never miss it...

Yep, good to meet you Anthony. Hate it you had to bail before you got to eat some good grub. The ride got better after that as well, so hopefully you can make it again soon, assuming the weather cooperates sometime soon. Be safe...and WELCOME!

Welcome! Glad you could make the ride. At least for a little bit of it, anyway. Keep an eye on the boards for the next ride.

Miles: from San Diego, was statuoned there and imiss it from time to time. Mainly when the weather here turns funky. Always perfect riding weather out there. Just the traffic was a nightmare, and it always seemed motorists were always out to get you when your on a bike.
BeautifulDisaster: Thanks
Pooty:Thanks, and it was great to meet you and everyone today as welll
LonestarCBR: hate that I jad to bail as well, never had Hammonds, and have never been out on those roads. Was a pleasant surprise for me today. Thank you again and I will do my best to make the next ride.
Dufremle: Thanks. I had a great time. Next time i shouldnt have anything going on.

A whole lot of those Cali cage drivers have to moved to Texas, but they are sneaky. They've put Texas plates on their cars, so they are a little hard to pick out of the crowd until they have you targeted. :-D

Welcome, I'm sure we'll meet on another ride soon. I'm also here from CA but northern route SF and I live next door to you in Southlake. I do miss CA weather and ocean but found happiness here as well.
