Howdy!

Post by motochris » Tue Jul 12, 2011 2:20 pm

Hello All,

My name is Chris I live in mesquite. I ride an 05 hayabusa. I have had this bike since 05 when I rode it off the showrrom. My first bike was a 454 ltd kawi that I got when I was 15 (25yrs ago), this was my first form of transportation and I have been riding every since. My last bike was a 94 ZX9R, loved that bike. Anyhow look forward to maybe riding with some of ya. I work weekends, so it makes it kinda hard to hook up and ride...my days off are usually mon/tues.

my bf :D (Grinner) works long hours during the week too and sometimes on weekends even though he told them NO from the get go when they hired him, but it never changes, so I hear ya babe. I too work weekends, well, Sunday mornings as I was finally able to get out of working Saturdays so I could have ONE day out of the week to spend with my bf. Thank God for a nice manager. (Now if I can only get out of the restaurant business).

Hope to see you Thursday if you can make it. We'll be at the Pour House on 7th - Downtown F.W. - Check the Club Events Section for more info. The "Second Round" starts at 10 so I'm sure people will still be there if you're lucky.

Oh, and Howdy back!
