What does your username mean?

I like beer. I was taking a tour of a brewery about 15 year ago, and in the museum they had this piece that was called a Barley Masher which was used to. well, mash barley: Roasted barley used to be inserted into the contraption, which would then mash the barley into a pulp to be used later during distillation.

So a few years later I needed a name for a fantasy football team, I wanted something unique and something to do with beer. I remembered this contraption, I concatenated the name and then started using it for every other user name...

 

Well mine is fairly simple. I'm a GUY that has always loved the VFR's since they hit the showroom floor here at the local dealership where my dad worked back in the early 80's. The 2000 part is because that is the year I married my wife, & its also part of my e-mail address. I just love all of the VFR's/Interceptor's so I figured VFR-GUY2000 was very fitting for me!:tongue:

 

Well, I have/had a VF500F, It's not a VFR (Viffer) it's a VFR minus the R, just VF (Viff).

Because my bike is referred to as a Mini/Baby-ceptor I named her "Viffy" the "y" being a diminutive/feminine nature to the name.

 

Howdy Derstuka,
My first name is Robin last Pepper and 63 for those paying attention is ??? of course. And by the way, Love your part of the Pac Coast. Have a step son down there, and some interestingly connected family/friends. Have a wonderful night. I'm auf.

 

Got so tired of being around the local riders and hearing them complain about why they couldn't ride: too wet, too cold, too hot, too windy, etc. etc. Dude, you are blessed with a bike and paved roads...Shut Up And Ride!

A Kiwi is a small flightless bird endemic to New Zealand (no, it is not a brown fuzzy fruit - that would be "kiwi fruit"). It is also a nickname given to people who grew up in New Zealand. I live in Denver now but grew up in NZ

 

JerDub77 has been a username I have used for a while. My first name is Jeremy and my last name starts with a "W" so hence the JerDub. Many websites require your user name to include numbers and letters so I added the 77 since that is the year I was born.

 

Love your story brother. I've been trying to live what I call the "Saran wrap " lifestyle. Strong, flexible, and transparent. Usually the last one is the hardest. Some of my favorite prayer time is in the saddle of my '85 VF500F, and its not just "Please God, don't let some stupid fool run a stop sign!"

 

amen.

and to paraphrase Elwood Blues: "Our Lady of Blessed Acceleration, help me get past this jackass."

 

Username

Einzelkampfer (alt. spelling=einzelkaempfer) means "lone wolf" or "lone fighter." I chose the name because A) German's a tremendous language, and I'd like to take the time to learn it, and B) I recently returned to Camp Honda with the purchase of a 2006 VFR. (Haven't owned a motorcycle in 16 years, and have rarely ridden in all of that time.) My wife was and is incredibly unhappy with my actions, so I'm "in the doghouse" for the foreseeable future, so "lone wolf" is pretty fitting right now. It's worth it!

 

some squirrely subjects:

 

TX - State I live in

Weed - Last Name

WeedMan - Nick Name

 

Oh suuurrrrre....

 

That's not exactly the meaning I got from it either! LOL :smokin:

 

Army-what I do, going on 22 years; 86, the year I joined the Army and the year of my VFR750

 

Rum distillery in Bundaberg, Australia had a gift shop selling novelty license plates among other things (t-shirts, etc) and I found one with "Rum Pig" on it. Fit the ARB Bull Bar for my 96 Disco SD that I had off-road built up.

So, used RumPig + VFR as my handle..damn fine rum they make too.
