Moved here from FL

Moved here from FL

Post by Tigger » Mon Jul 07, 2014 7:34 pm

Been riding for around 15 years on six bikes. Moved here in March, and have yet to meet any other riders. Found your site the other day, and you all sound like the kind of people I want to ride with. You also sound like the kind of people I can learn from. Looking forward to meeting and riding with you.

Welcome...and trust me, you need to post a pic of your bike...soon. :-)

I've been on the boards coming up on a year now, and I PROMISE you'll learn all kinds of stuff. Some you will want to know, some you won't, but you'll be the wiser for sure. :SideSplittingLaughter:

Hopefully someone will post up a ride soon, and you can join in. I'm not sure we have an active Duck rider right now that I've seen. All the cool kids ride Euro bikes, so you'll fit in well. :cool:

Seriously these guys and gals are a great bunch, you'll enjoy them very much.

What is BMW winning? AMA? I know it's not WSB. I think they may be doing EVO class in WSB
