Greetings from the Lone Star State

#1 Unread post by Gravatron »

Howdy Damnit.

Sorry, being an Aggie-by-proxy, I have to open greetings with that.

Anywho, I'm new to motorcycling, or at least inexperienced enough to make that the best label. Besides some dirt biking in my youth, i've not ridden much at all in recent years.

Recently graduated Magna come Laude from College, and work as Programmer Analyst here in Austin, Tx.

Given that i'm 23, single, and make good money, i've got some disposable income. Always been in love with bikes, and once my Father got one back last summer, my interest had peaked. I wanted one during college, but never had the 25000 ramennoodle (an official college currency) to buy a decent bike.

Having gone with my siblings and Father to Daytona for Bike week though, I decided I had to seriously look into one again.

Anyways, great to be here folks. Look forward to experiencing the community here.

I always follow the rules.
The only exception to the rule occurs when I make an exception to the rule not to make an exception to the rule and that only occurs under exceptional circumstances.

Okay I've got to ask, how are you an Aggie by proxy? Isn't it an all or none arrangement?

Oh, and welcome. :) Both to TMW and to Austin.

Well you see, my college is part of the A&M system, and my sister was an aggie, and the whole family are huge fans.

Fair enough. I'll have to come up with some Aggie motorcycle jokes for you. ;)
