Hello!!!

Post by DiggerT67 » Fri Sep 14, 2012 10:44 am

My name is John (but everyone calls me Digger...although I've answered to worse). I live north of Saginaw. I am a designer / welder / fabricator.

I popped in at bike night last night. I had a great time and I am looking forward to meeting everyone else.

Hey John, glad to meet you last night! Hope to see you on a ride soon as well! Feel free to ask any questions you may have. Other than that just sit back and watch these weirdos talk to each other over the internet :)

Wait a minute!!! Another red bike and another red jacket!! Either you or Dufremle need to change something up...either a different color bike (get spray paint from home depot), stickers (get some from Darcshadow), or a new jacket.

That is ok. At least everyone would enjoy watching. Some may even ask to take it for a spin.
