Good afternoon everyone, Just checking in as a courtesy. New to the site after hearing a couple friends yak about it for the past couple years. Thought I'd check it out and here I am. I'm not a huge poster, usually just browsing.
I'm a motorcycle enthusiast who mostly just CC's small pistols. I'm not a sport shooter or hunter. Though someday when I'm too old for motorcycles I may take those up.
Anyhow, it'll be cool to meet you guys and see what I can learn here.

I'm a road racer, 2015 Yamaha R1M. I race with OMRRA and marshall with motocorsa
Other than that, I occasionally ride dirt, but not actively.

Do you ride?

Then you must know the Pinkstaff boys, Oly and the Zlock brothers. I paint there bikes every year. I did my share of raodracing until I made the decision to stop because of my age. It takes twice as long to heal when your in your 50's. I took the OMRRA novice school back in the 90's. Finished 12th my very first race. I managed to make the podium once in a 4hr endurance race up here with WMRRA.My first bike, I still have today, is a 92 Kawaski ZX-7R. Then I bought a 95 ZX-7 Superbike. I finished with a 01 gsxr600r. Now I have slowed way down and ride an 04 softail. So......................................
