My Intro..

Hi my name is Steve, I am 39 yrs old, live in Spanish Springs and ride an '06 Ninja 650R. Wife occasionally rides her '06 Ninja 250R. This is my 2nd bike and her first. My first was a 03 Nighthawk 750. This is my 2nd year riding.

Never done a group ride before. Not much into freeways either but look forward to meeting some locals.

I surf a few other m/c forums, Sport Tourning.net and the Ninja 650 forum.

There is a West coast meet in Fortuna CA at the end of May I think. Pretty large gathering. Pretty far ride but one of you may be interested. My brother's coming down from the Pacific Northwest for the event.

Welcome Steve. Group rides are great this is actually my first experiences with them and I love it.

The wife and I took our Ninja's for a spin around town for some errands today, for about fifty miles. That's more miles in one run than we've ever done before. Our bikes are primarily commuters.

Saw quite a few other riders out today and waved of course.

We're busy tomorrow so won't be attending the event at HPcustomcycles. After what happened in Laughlin a few years back not sure if I'd go w/o body armor on or not..

You guys will fit in fine with us. When we make our semi-long rides I am pretty sure you guys will enjoy, not only the ride but the scenery.
