New guy here! Asheville, NC

[thirdgenlxi]

What's up everyone?? Stumbled upon this forum so I figured I'd join up here too (I'm on alot of forums, lol). Anyways, quick intro.... my name is Jared, I'm 27 and live just outside of Asheville, NC, aka heaven from a moto standpoint

I ride a black & red '04 CBR 600 F4i which I absolutely love to death...I ride it each and everyday, commuting, shopping, long and short roadtrips, whatever else.... I just love to ride! Racked up just over 170,000 miles so far and still going strong as ever (I bought it new 10-17-04 with 3 miles).... been a fan-freakin-tastic bike!

A few pics.... Bike, about 2 months ago along the Blue Ridge Parkway in NC





Me and the bike back in 2007 in south Florida, downtown Ft. Lauderdale



That's about it for me! Hope to get to know some of you here as well.... take it easy everyone and ride safe!

Welcome to TMW.

My brother used to live right outside Asheville. His gf went to collage up there. It is a beautiful place for sure and a great place o ride. Though I have never ridden there. But a fast drive in his Subaru around the area was quite thrilling.

Love the blue ridge parkway. Beautiful place.

welcome Jared - You live in a beautiful place. I've driven the BRP, but would love to ride it, especially the dragon's tail. I actually have an opportunity later this month, as some new friends are planning a trip there. Frankly, I'm just getting back into riding after an 18 year lay off (had kids and promised my wife I'd put the hobby down for a while). While my mind really wants to go on this trip, my body and my bike are probably better of waiting a while before I try a 1000 mile tour. After I get some more seat time, though, look out.

Anyway, again, welcome.
