Hello everyone!
First let me say how impressed by this community I am. When I started researching getting a motorcycle over a year ago I stumbled across this site and instantly bookmarked it. Since I made the decision a few months ago to finally get one I've been visiting almost everyday and am always amazed at the quality of the posts the TMW members make.

Thanks to this site I took the advise of many posts and took a novice rider training class, which I passed with flying colors and was well worth it. I was also able to narrow the type of bike, which I finally decided on a 2006 Yamaha V-Star 650 Classic!

So a little about me, I'm 28, living in beautiful Seattle Washington and just picked up my first motorcycle! I work as a Network Administrator for a small company near Gasworks Park and am really excited to be biking!

I wanted to thank all the experienced riders out there that have taken the time to share their expertise with us newbies. It doesn't go unnoticed!

-Duane

Good looking bike! Welcome :). Have fun riding!! Hope you get some nice weather out there! First nice day I would be riding down WA coast down into Oregon, or up the other way - I bet it would be an incredible ride!

Welcome to the forums...

The Emerald city isn't that far south of Hollywood North... I, as well as a few others, live in the Greater Vancouver area, just north of the 49th. Who knows, maybe we'll meet one day... :wink:

Hello! Welcome to the community - and by that I mean both the TMW and the riding community too!

That bike looks great. Congrats on passing the course with flying colours and have fun out there in the rainy season on the we(s)t coast.

Andrea :)
