New Members - Introduce yourself here! (NEW thread)

[rforsythe]

Since we have had a steady stream of new members joining the club, this thread will serve as a place for any new members to let us know who they are instead of having a ton of "Hi I'm new here" posts in the general forum.

Are you new? Let us know a bit about yourself if you want, or just give a shout out to the club.

[FZRguy]

Welcome to the CSC rforsythe! Oh wait, nevermind. :lol:

[zukeru]

Hey guys hows it going just saying high I noticed the introduce yourself thread was close. I have a 2012 cbr1000rr. Hope to make it out to an event sometime or maybe go do some riding. I need to get the chicken scratch off my new bike. I don't want to ride to hard until i get some slides, but hit me up if you want to do a cruise to some windy roads sometime. I don't know to many good rides here because I have only been here since august.

Old lurker, new poster here.

About me:
Been racing cars on an amateur level (autox, rallyx, scca, etc) since around '99 but a few years ago switched to bikes for my speed and wrenching fix. I tend to modify everything I own to hell and back or leave it bone stock. I am currently sellin my old ninja 500 I re-learned street-riding on years ago, and halfway though the build of my new bike. The new beast is based around an existing engine, frame and single-swinger, with lots of heterogeneous parts now being installed.

I have a small garage at my place and I can oft be found wrenching and cussing on various mechanical bits. Making music in the basement is also a hobby, and still haven't found anyone to jam with. And I still play way too many video games for a guy my age. I also brew beer, 4x4 my yota, shoot guns, hike, and other typical coloradoan stuff. My 2 roomies also ride, so it would be awesome to find/form a small group for mountain attacks.

Feel free to hit me up for just about any reason. I got some time on my hands this summer and hope ride more.

Also wanted to say thanks to all the people updating all the ride reports. That info has been invaluable planning rides in the past few years.

Hey everyone,
My name is Aaron, and I have lived in Colorado for about 13 years now. I have ridden some kind of a motorcycle on and off since 2002. I currently ride a 2006 Yamaha YZF600R. I want to work my way to a liter bike in a couple of years, but I need to learn on a 600 for now. I live in Parker, but work downtown. Thanks everyone for making this club and site so cool. I appreciate it. Thanks!!

Been riding for about 10yrs, started with smaller Hondas, Rode a big Victory, and now on the S3.

I usually do 250-300mi day rides through the mountains, but I'm always up for city rides with good food/coffee destinations as well. I'll try to join up on one of the group rides yet this summer!

Hey everybody,

Just joined the forum. Started riding two years ago and can't get enough of the thrill when hammering the throttle and hauling ass. Looking for new folks to go riding with. I'm usually in the foothills riding every weekend. My favorite short ride is Bear Creek Canyon Rd. Hope to meet up with you all at some point for a ride.

Hey all, I just moved to Colorado earlier this year. Sold my CBR when I moved and just picked up a R1. I have been going into the mountains to ride the twisted by myself so far. I only know 2 people here that ride so I'm looking for more. I'm a noob to the site but I have been riding for several years and have had several bikes. I love riding and hope to meet some of you soon.

Hey everyone. I just moved to Colorado almost 2 months ago from Florida. I raced with CCS down there and I'm looking forward to getting involved with MRA as well as some street rides. I have gone on rides here by myself, but its not as fun as riding with a group. Not sure if you guys and / gals meet up to watch racing (MotoGP, WorldSBK, BSB, AMA, TT) , but that would be fun to be apart of too.

[Sully]

Welcome to Colorado and the CSC. :hibye: Looks like you're on your way with the n00b ride and meeting new people to ride with. Check out the Canyon Carving section along with occasion Social Events that are posted. Familiarize yourself with the meeting locations (sticky at the top of the Canyon Carving Section) so you know where MoCo is (along with the other meet up spots.) :)

[packman5280]

Hello all, my name is Jamie and i've lived in CO my whole life. Owned my CBR for about 5 years or so but no longer have any friends who ride so thought i might be able to find some people to meet up with by joining here. went on a solo ride last weekend up the canyons west of Golden, was a nice day. really though i either need to get better at leaning my bike over (retarded big chicken strips, sheesh) or sell it for a cruiser because there's no point in having a sportbike and riding it upright all the time, might as well get something comfy that doesn't hurt my back. anyway, that's me, i'll try to make it to the next n00b meetup.

[CJC]

Hi everyone, recently moved from Florida to Colorado Springs, loving the epic riding around these parts and looking for people to share with. Hope to meet up for a group ride soon.

[Drano]

Welcome to the dirty south!

[matthewdesigns]

Howdy everyone. I don't have a bike anymore but I'm hoping you'll forgive me that indiscretion :) I have a turbo Miata that I beat on up in the mountains, and with no forum specifically for canyon carving car owners here in CO I would respectfully ask that you folks grant me a provisional pass to join in an occasional ride (drive). I'm no flatbrimmed DoRiFtO noob out to asshat my way around the back roads with you all, and as a former rider I have plenty of respect for safety. Let me know if I'm barking up the wrong tree and I'll GTFO.

PS - If the Milkman has not pissed too many of you off, he can vouch for me :D

[#1Townie]

A miata chasing bikes around the mountain..... Hmmm. Thinking plenty of gopros need to be recording this. Lol.

Hi all! New to Colorado from Missouri. Living in Brighton currently. I've been riding for about 2 years and currently ride a 2012 Ninja 650.

Hi everyone, new to the site and Colorado. Moved here about a week ago, living in Centennial. I should soon have an R1 in my possession and plan to go and leave a deposit for the '15 R1. Been riding for about 11 years now, last bike was an S1000RR that I totaled a year ago, broke some bones and bought a CBR600RR after I healed up to keep busy on until I moved here. Did some track days in TX some years ago, plan to do the same all next year and then get into racing with the MRA after that. Look forward to meeting people here to ride with.

[slave2gravity]

Hi all - my wife and I just moved to Boulder from the SF Bay Area a few weeks ago. I'm looking forward to exploring the local roads (once they're clear again) and riding the local tracks, as well as making trips out to Miller Motorsports and Circuit of the Americas. We don't know anyone out here, so hopefully I'll meet some of you at club events soon.

[The Driver]

hello everybody! My name is Tyler Driver (yes that's my last name) and just joined thanks to Raven Faber! I build and race cars and have been racing dirt bikes since I was about 6. Now own a 1995 cbr900rr and absolutely love it. I'm looking forward to meeting some good people and having some good rides. I'm always down for a ride so anyone let me know if they want to go!! Also have a deep passion for philosophy so it is inevitable that you'll have some interesting conversations with me:)

[Drano]

Welcome to the club, Tyler. :)

[DeektheCatt]

My name is Colin or Deekthecatt


moving back to Arvada Colorado from Minneapolis in two weeks and looking for some people to ride with. I currently have an old 1989 (I think that's the year) Kawasaki dirt bike (kdx200) and a 2006 GSXR1000.
I was pretty involved in a riding group in Minnesota and am hoping to meet some good people back in Colorado.

Welcome! Things will be picking up as spring draws nearer. In the mean time, think about joining us for the pre-parade, here: http://www.cosportbikeclub.org/forums/showthread.php?53543-2015-St-Patrick-s-Day-Parade-Sign-Up-Thread-***-Sign-Up-by-1-30-***&highlight=St.+Patrick%27s+day

Unfortunately sign ups are full, but you can still come and hang out...

[BillyTheKid]

EEk...I better get off my rear and properly introduce myself. Hi, I'm Jake from State Farm. Lame, I know...but at least you know I have a sense of humor; which is how I try to approach everything.


Obviously by my profile name you can guess my real first name. My beautiful wife and I moved to the greater Denver area (Parker) in July of last year. We absolutely love it here...although I wish we were a tad bit closer to the mountains. Since this is a riding forum/club I should touch on that; I've been riding motorcycles on the road for thirteen years (or thereabouts) and my current stable houses a '05 BMW K1200s (daily commuter when the weather permits) and a '13 Ducati 848 EVO Corse SE. Hopefully this year I will be able to get the Duc (aka 'Francesca') out to the track, something I failed to accomplish while living in CA (I know, right!?).

I love bikes (any/all makes and models) but those aren't my only mistresses/distractions (as my wife likes to point out LOL); I won't bore you with those details, which are better learned over a beer anyway. I'm looking forward to meeting up and connecting with many of you during the next few years that we're stationed here.

cheers!

Hey everyone,

I can't seem to find the new introduction thread, but I still wanted to say Hi!

So a little about myself, I'm 23, my name is Taylor and I just moved to Denver. Right off Evans and I25 actually. I picked up a 2004 zx6r with 5k miles for slightly over 3k, the other week. It is completely stock, other than a slip-on. This is my second bike and third year riding. I'm really looking forward to riding with, and getting to know everyone on the forum! Definitely have been craving some canyon riding, I'm really wanted to get rid of my chicken strips this season.

(Need to resize bike image to post a picture of it, but it's the one in my avatar!)

Another new member here! I've lived in Colorado my whole life, and currently reside in Littleton. I'm on my 3rd bike, I grew out of my first two. My current ride is an '07 Kawasaki Z1000.
After looking around the website I am pretty excited to see that people love to go on rides together! I'll be sure to post when I have some planned. I am always game to ride Deckers or Deer Creek, just HMU! My job is early morning, so I'm usually available all week in the afternoon. How active is the Facebook page for planning rides? I just joined that as well.

Anyways, way excited to be here and for the season to get rolling!

I'm planning on going to Nationwide this Sunday if you, or anyone else wants to meet up!!

i did go on a nice little 100 mile ride today, had the bike serviced, and then somehow lost my keys to the bike. So depressing!!! So I'm having the lock smith come pull a cut from one of the locks, and make me some new keys Sunday morning. Pretty depressing I'm not going to be able to ride tomorrow or sunday.

If anyone has a way to get into the fuel tank without a key, I can ride. I can get it started without the key, just can't fuel it up without the key haha. So anyone have any suggestions?

[Spiderman]

No Yamahas? :wtf: paging spiderman :lol:
I finally put a new motor in Zippo (even tho, as it turns out, I didn't have to, but that's a whole other story :oops: ), and, considering I hadn't ridden it in almost 2 years, I wanted to ride it in the parade!! (not to mention, despite being a 250, it also happens to be the loudest bike I own! :lol: ).

[Ph03niX]

Somehow my bike's PO managed to strip the inside of the gas key lock. Literally I can open the gas tank with any key. :lol: Kind of lucky if that ever happens to me I guess.

I may or may not be going to nationwide. I'm headed up to hanging lake on sunday. It's like 3.5 hours from me lol that's a lot of driving.

Give this guy a call, he is a life saver when it comes to locks. Can't remember his name, but his company is Ayers front range lock and key. 303-466-1841
He can also make new smart keys for the Ducati's and MV Agusta's, Whatever. Great guy, great prices.

Hey Everyone,

I moved to Colorado 4 months ago and just purchased my first bike, a 2015 Yamaha Fz-09 last Saturday. I test road it when it had 1 mile on it, and right now it only has about 100 miles.

I moved here from Atlanta, GA. My riding experience comes from dirt biking when I was younger, and I have a bunch of friends in the Army that would hand me the keys to their bikes when they would go on training missions etc.. The two bikes I spend the most time with were a 2008 zx6r (monster edition) and a Harley sportster (1200 cc model)... I would say between those two bikes I logged about 2 - 3k miles. I definitely still see myself as a beginner rider, and ride my bike in fashion that suits my skill level.

In Georgia I had my permit for 5 years. (LOL) There weren't many restrictions in Georgia with a permit so I just never took the time to go take the test. After putting 100 miles on my bike I found out that it is illegal to ride with a permit not under the supervision of someone else that has their license... (annoying) I am going to take my road test today at 4:00 pm so I can get legal. I practiced some slow speed maneuvers last night and hope to pass the test with flying colors. (Going to be taking the test on their 125 cc bike so I don'y have to ride my bike up to the testing illegally.) Let me know if you have any tips!

Here are my two toys.... 2013 Subaru wrx (stage 2) and my 2015 Yamaha Fz09

[Tyrian]

Glad to find some other sports bike riders, after years in a Harley club I turned in my cruiser for a street bike. Looking to get out and have some fun with everyone

[BenFZ]

Little update to my introduction...

I took the motorcycle test yesterday and passed with no deductions... Perfect score. Went to the DMV and now have a full motorcycle endorsement!

I also found out that Colorado passed a law that if you are caught riding your motorcycle with a permit w/o someone with a license over 21 they can impound your bike with a $2,500 impound fee!

you know we love those Hello Kitty school girls! bwahahahahaha.. :lol:... At least I'm still riding AAAANNNNDDDD posting on this forum :p You got me there for sure......just taking a break....been riding 16+ years on sportbikes and saw a lot of wrecks that have messed me up and made me lose my confidence. I will get it back one day; plus my other hobby, fitness, pretty much takes up all my time. Really I need to just go strictly track nowadays, but nothing all that close and I have no pickup or trailer.

Also saving up for a new house too.....business over pleasure.


Honestly I just wanted to post that a girl was riding a pornstar....although now that I think of it guess that could be a guy pornstar too, but always assumed the GSXR was a girl. We all know you love Johnny Sims and got all his movies Sully (do not google him at work)

[Sully]

LOL :lol: I wasn't taking a stab at you. It just sucks that this forum has only about 50? active people that post (who knows how many lurkers), and almost all of those are males.. sad panda :(

It just sucks that this forum has only about 50? active people that post (who knows how many lurkers), and almost all of those are males.. sad panda :( No problem, just first time in a very long time I have not had a bike so it is hard (and I am sure sensitive over it).

I hear you though and not sure what happened. After the site moved systems seemed like we lost over half our members. You remember the old days like me and this place had so many people posting and was normal too see 50+ on at one time.

And yeah even less girls, but now you and BornWF seem to be the only girls who still post.


If it makes you feel better I am a lesbian trapped in a man's body; love them women. :lol:

Hey, all. Found this place looking for track day info and liked several of the other threads as well. I'm probably on a Victory if you see me in the canyons. But, Sunset classes at PMP have me addicted to the track now so, I'm on an old CBR there since last fall. Cheers!

Welcome! See you at the track.

[RandomTask]

Hey everyone. My name is Marcus and I met ahamay at PMP a few weeks ago who told me about this forum. I just moved to the Springs in Aug, I do mainly track days but looking forward to some group rides in the canyons too. Been riding over 10 years and my current bike is a 2007 Ducati 1098

Welcome mang

[PeggyAnnPuttPutt]

Hi. Moved to Buena Vista recently, from Broomfield. Looking for a few folks to ride with as a warm-up to the season, something less than 100 miles. Rode the canyons along the Front Range before moving here. Love the twisties! Can ride on week-days to enjoy less traffic. Also available week-ends.

[Lomax]

Drive by to say HI. Hi Sully and all. :eyebrows:

Hope everyone is well and still riding.

[Buechler5]

Hey Everyone, been riding for about 5 yrs and moved to Colorado about 3 yrs ago now. Bought my 06 R1 stock and have been adding tasty bits little by little. Went on the group ride last Sunday, which was a blast by the way:). Met a few forum members and hope to meet more as the season goes on. Would post up a pic but for some reason I'm unable to get it to load even at resizing the image.:dunno:

[Jmetz]

Welcome. You have to host your pics elsewhere you can't upload directly.

Hey guys,

My name is Brandon. I rode with the club back in 2000, yes its been a loooong time. I had to give my hobby up due to financial reasons. But here I am 15 years later with the itch (again) and unfortunately older, but fortunately wiser ;).

Its great to see some familiar names here and also great to see how much the Colorado Sportbike Club has grown.

I do have an MSF course coming up here on Aug 10/11th, mostly to get my bearings and confidence back and to hopefully learn some new things. I've already got my new baby waiting for me. She's an 08 CBR1000RR with 7k miles, runs and looks beautiful. Starting over again certainly brings back memories of excitment yet nervousness.

I'm looking forward to meeting you guys. When I rode with the club back in the day, I believe we only had the one meeting spot at the Starbucks on County Line Rd and Quebec (near Highlands Ranch). Now I see the club has grown into different metro areas...thats awesome! I'm currently living in Reunion (Commerce City), so hopefully I can find those of you in the area to do some rides with.

Cheers,

Brandon

Welcome back man, nice ride :up:

[Owen_R6]

welcome back, man...good looking bike!

[XX]

Thanks guys. :D

[One-ops]

Welcome back!!! Come hang out Sunday with us!!!

[XX]

Welcome back!!! Come hang out Sunday with us!!!

Hey One-ops, is this Sunday just a one off planned ride, or do you guys typically meet on Sundays? Unfortunately I won't be able to make this Sunday. I promised myself to be patient and just get through the MSF course first. ;)

[One-ops]

We typically do sat. Last couple weeks have been sunday. Sometime we do both days and even after work for a few hours.

[One-ops]

I figured that but hang out with us after the ride. Redline has a thread for it for this week.

[Sully]

Where are you taking the MSF class?

[~Barn~]

Welcome back XX!

[XX]

@ One-ops - right on man I'll check it out. Can't make Sats as I work, but I'll head out on a Sunday for sure. ;)

@ Sully - I'm going through Full Throttle - they hold their class over off of 104th and Ura (basically 104th and I-25), near where the Mike Shaw Subaru dealership is.

Barn - thanks man. I think I remember riding with you a couple of times. You had an R1 back then didn't you?

[~Barn~]

<Snip...> Barn - thanks man. I think I remember riding with you a couple of times. You had an R1 back then didn't you?

I sure did; two actually. I had a 2000 R1 that I eventually put in the parts bin due to my failed stunting career, and then I had a 2004 R1 [Britney] that I couldn't keep a drivers license long enough for to enjoy. =)

Glad you're back... We'll catch upon a ride sometime soon hopefully.

LOL NICE!! :)

Thanks Sully - I've heard nothing but positives about them. A co-worker of mine took the class and said she had a lot of fun with them.

How did your class go?

[XX]

How did your class go?

Hey Sully, the two day class was great! Even the weather wasn't too hot. The first day was a bit overcast with light showers, and the next day it was just overcast. We did have young guy go down on the first day unfortunately. Luckily for him he can retake the class at no additional expense.

It took no time at all getting reacquainted with riding. Thus far I've been out a little bit on the CBR just trying to get used to the bike. It'll take a short while for me to get my trust back in my own skills as well as that of the bike, so any, 'long distance', riding is out the question at present, at least for the next few weeks/month. There was a decreasing radius turn at the intersection of 96th and Highway 2 near my house, that about scared the bejesus outta me..lol. Its just gonna take some getting used to again, and then I'll start to venture further out. ;)

[Sully]

Glad to hear you had a great time in class! :up: Just get out there and ride now.. take it easy.. practice in parking lots if you need to!

[HG Dude]

Hello there, new guy from Stapleton.......

got a new bike and have the itch to do some more "fun" riding than my typical commute.
http://www.hanggliding.org/files/obh_173.jpg

old bike is a 1996 bandit 600 that I have put 70,000 miles on since i got it...
new is a 2005 600rr

[rybo]

Hello HG Dude!

Welcome! Good on you for 70K miles....that's a lot of time in the seat. Hopefully the 600rr will be equally good to you!

[madvlad]

Welcome dood

[HG Dude]

Hello HG Dude!

-the world

yes, the bandit has been a great bike, and at nearly 89,000 miles, a solid 70k of which were mine I think i got my 1700$ worth out of her. The honda however, has made riding fun again.......:ride:

:hibye: Welcome.. Nice rides

[Slo]

Congrats and welcome

[mdub]

Definitely got your monies worth. It always feel good to benefit on such a purchase on the bandit. Reminds me when I bought kids a go kart for 700 hundo back in 2004. Then sold it for 500 in 2015.

Welcome HG, sort of new here as well. Nice rides man! :up:
