Hi everyone!

I encourage ALL our older members (over 3,200 of them) to again introduce themselves again and say HI to everyone in the forum.

This gives you the GREAT opportunity to do this all over again! Why not right? It only takes a second to do and it's fun for everyone!

Let's try to meet a goal of 1,000 friendly "HELLOS".

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Thanks to all our members, new and old for making the Total Motorcycle Community such a friendly and fun place to be everyday!!

Mike.

Hi everyone! I'm Mike. The person who runs this great community forum you are enjoying (or I hope you are enjoying) right now. But as much as I do, it's you the members who make it so very special and friendly. :D

I live in Calgary, Alberta, Canada and I've been riding on and off for sometime now (started riding in 1991) and I love it.

My current motorcycle is a 1982 Yamaha XJ650R Seca that I've had for 2 years now (going on 3 this season) I have also owned 4 motorcycles in that time, a 1984 Honda Magna V30, a Honda 1980 CB400T Hawk and a 1978 Suzuki GS550.

You can see a photo of my bike here in the Total Motorcycle Photo Galleries:

Hi all!

My name is Andrea, the wife of TMW Mike. Obviously I have been a member on this site since the "original beginning." I am from Calgary, Canada and work for an oil & gas company as a GIS Specialist (mapper).

I am starting my third year of riding, and still own my first bike: a 1981 Honda CB400T. I hope to ride much more this year than last!!!

Take care and I look forward to meeting you all for the first time..."again"...

Andrea :)

Hi, MikeP from the St. John Valley in Northern Maine.
I ride mostly in Northern Maine, Western New Brunswick and bordering Quebec. I Have been riding for about 39 years, took some time off when the kids were growing up. Loved every bike I've had and it just keeps getting better. If it weren't for motorcycles, life would unbearable, just like our winters here.
Thanks for the Total Motorcycle Forums, their great, better than the bike specific forums that used to frequent.

Loonette here! I started riding in October of '03 at the age of 36 - since then I've ridden a Honda Rebel, a Yamaha FZ6 (only briefly though - too tall for me), a Honda Shadow Spirit (1100), and my new ride as of three weeks ago is a Kawasaki Vulcan Mean Streak.

Cheers,
Loonette

Howdy, Ya'll! Your token hillbilly here, from Asheville, North Carolina, USA, (aka: Biker Heaven :mrgreen:) .

I'm sort of an old-timer, too - been a bike enthusiast since the late 60s, but I swear I'm havin' more fun now than ever! It's great to be a part of TMW... I'm honored to be Moderator of the Funny Farm and Experienced Biker Forums, two great places for us to have a good time.
Current flame (sshh! Don't tell Herself!) is a '93 Kawasaki ZR1100. I think I'd rather ride it than eat when I'm hungry!
:wink:

Enjoy the site! Ya'll come back and see us, 'hear? :D

Hello all! I'm keysman (Todd) and I am the moderator of both of the reviews forums here on Total Motorcycle. I have been riding since December 2003 and the great and wise members of these forums helped me be more informed before I picked up my bike. This site was a BIG help. I stuck around because it's a great community. There are a lot of great conversations... and debates. I ride a 2003 BMW F650 CS. It's been a great bike so far and I'm really loving the experience. My goal is to put more miles on my bike this year than I did last year. I keep track of my journeys on my blog. Have a look, there is a link in my signature.

Hello...

Hello all.

My name is Xander, (or Sandy), and I have been riding for a little over 20 years in total. The first 9 were strictly off-road, and the last 11 on road. Although off-road is fun, on-road is where my passion lies. Street bikes I have owned are...

-1982 Yamaha Vision 550
-1982 Suzuki GS750E
-1983 Suzuki GS400E
-197? Yamaha Special 650 (not exactly sure of year)

Two that I still own...

-1977 Suzuki GS750E (now a restoration project)
-1988 Kawasaki Ninja 600R (current ride)

That is sure crappy what th loser hacker(s) did, we lost alot of great stuff here. I guess we all have to find new great stuff to rebuild with.
