Lookin forward to ride Sunday

Post by Jester » Fri Jul 05, 2013 4:06 pm

Hey my name is Wes, I have only been riding for about a year and I am 24 years old. Bought and learned on my first bike, 2008 Honda shadow 750 spirit, and decided cruisers just were not my stile. Did a little shopping around and got on a 2012 Honda CB1000R. Not to be confused with the Honda CBR1000R. Also own a 2012 Honda CBR250R for commuting cause lets face it 1000s get crappy gas mileage. Plus the 20 stretch from chapel creek to 35 is littered with red and blue and it's hard to keep it near the posted speed limit at 1:00 a.m. (No traffic) not making excuses for owning a 250 I love that tiny thing. Anyway can't wait to meet a few people that love what I love.

Welcome to the boards. If you are able, come hang out with us this Thursday at bike night. Keep an eye on the club ride section for any future rides (some of us RL's post up at the last minute).

Most of us are "old" and head home around 10ish...some of the young bucks like stardog82 show up around 10:30-11ish, so depending on what time you end up at the Fox will determine how many of us you will get to meet.
