    Hi all! Just wanted introduce myself, its about 8 months since someone backed over my '01 Kawi ZR7-S in the local grocery store parking lot and I am ever so excited to be back on two wheels! Before that I had an '85 maxim and now I've moved onto riding a 2000 VFR this week (the V4 sounds pretty nice with a staintune exhaust on it) and am doing some exploring.

    It looks like theres a few bay area riders on this forum and I'm new-ish to the area so if any one has suggestions on favorite rides, please feel free to suggest!

    Welcome aboard.
    Don't limit yourself to just the Bay Area. California is lousy with VFRWorlders.
    We have a big get together in San Luis Obispo and San Diego every year. Keep your eyes on this site.
    There's a ton of good folks here.

    Thanks for the welcome guys! The parents are outside glenwood springs these days so the odds are good for some beer and mini-van/soccer mom viewing.

    As for pics, they'll have to wait until I pick her up next weekend. The new girl is spending the week in a friends Sacramento garage until I arrange for a place to keep her off the street here at home. I've heard too many stories of nasty things happen to bikes parked on the street in this city.
