New member looking to meet new friends who enjoy riding
Hey y'all,
I'm a long time rider but I've not been riding for the last 8 years due to work and family issues. I finally broke down and purchased a KRX1200R since it was one of my all time favorite bikes.
My wife and I are fairly new to the area. We moved here from Miami a few years ago and now that I'm back riding again I would really like to meet some folks who love to ride like my wife and I and also meet some good friends along the way.
I just purchased my wife's first bike (Honda Rebel 250) and unfortunately she crashed it during the first day of lessons so i'm in the process of fixing the bike and getting her back on the bike.
My wife and I are very easy going people with a great sense of humor and we are hoping to meet some similar people who share our love for riding without being squidy.
I look forward to getting to know some of you in the near future.
Ride Safe
Scott

Welcome
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body; but rather to skid in sideways thoroughly used up, totally worn out and yelling at the top of your lungs "Holy Shit...What a ride!"
Re: New member looking to meet new friends who enjoy riding
Thank you to everyone who responded to my msg so quickly and a big thanks for the Bike Night information. I'll definitely try to attend as long as the weather permits.
Thank again for the Welcome and I look forward to meeting some of you this coming Thursday.
All the best
Scott

Welcome. And don't worry about the weather. If it gets bad, jump in the cage and come out. Bike night for us is about hanging out, and getting to know the people we ride with.

Re: New member looking to meet new friends who enjoy riding
All,
I see that bike night starts at 7pm. I have a meeting that doesn't end until 8:30 so I could be at the Pour House by 9pm. Would things still be going strong at that time or should I holdd off until the next Bike Night since I'm not sure how late the event goes until.
Thanks All
Regards

Re: New member looking to meet new friends who enjoy riding
Perfect. I'll be there with my better half. She has heard me talking about the group who seem to all be great(So far
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
Strange question but I'm mid 40's. Am I going to be the old man in the group here or is it quite a diverse age group? LOL
Sorry for the 100 questions. Just trying to know what I'm walking into on Thursday.
Thanks to everyone for being so helpful.
Later

That would be G-Rex followed by U-Turn. And actually G-Rex is older then Bird.

Welcome. I am sure you will find that this is a great group. You would be hard pressed to find better in my humble opinion. As for your age, its only a number and in no way represents who you are. I look forward to seeing you at bikenight.

alright, yeah, I forgot about G-Rex. Guess because I see him more outside of motorcycle events than within motorcycle events.
