I'm not going to claim to be the next Rossi, truth be told, I haven't ridden on the street in a decade (and I'm 21, so tell me I've made some bad choices before!) I did my fair share of off road riding as a kid in West Texas, after which I moved to Malaysia, and evidently lost my mind in more than a few respects - one of which included riding around a 125cc Suzuki scooter thing (you know the type, long seat, basket up front, but not quite a Vespa.. still had 5 gears, and big wheels.) I'm not sure I'd drive a truck in .my were I to find myself there again, but the past is the past. After I moved back to the States, I didn't get to ride, but it was always on my mind.
Fast forward, 8+ years later - I'm in Iraq. It's about 120 degrees out if anyone's wondering,but hey I finally have the means to get a bike of my own! R&R comes in August, and I'll be buying an SV650 in short order. Here's to hoping I can pick up some good banter, and information on this site - it looks promising so far.

Enjoy getting re-acquainted with riding, and keep posting!
I'll be starting a thread or two in the new biker forum, just to see if I'm still tracking logically, but now I must sleep.
