Hey guys/girls. Noob here to the board, but no stranger to these places. I was an Administrator over at EBC, but the Drama B/S got too thick in the backroom so I hadda pack my bags! This place looks nice.
I see there are some guys from Peabody and Salem. I am originally from salem now reside in Peabody!
I'm 43 going on 16! I have a 06 Hayabusa with a ton of mods done to it. I like to ride twisties and really get my lean on. I'm looking foward to maybe meeting and riding with some of you next season. I did a track day this past Summer at Pacific Raceways in Washington State. I'm hooked on that now.... I also have a 30K custom I built in 1999 and a 883 sporty.
Again, glad to be on board. Hope to have some fun here.
Here are a few pics of the Busa...

Welcome.

I like the case cover, very original.

Do you worry about your bar ends eviscerating you in an accident? They look painful.

I know when I'm looking at 1300cc bikes, I always try to envision where I can stick big sharp pointy pieces of metal.

(just giving you a hard time man)

I'd be more worried about getting blinded while riding on a sunny day.

Anyway, I think you guys will see that I blend right in here. I might have to get some of my followers in here to rock the place....

No, I flew in. Met my friend there. He as an 06 Busa, (2) 1K gixxers.
We did a 3 day run in the mountains and canyons of North Oregon with 20 other dudes. Talk about f/n nice roads!! (can you swear here?)
The track day I did, I used his sons Honda 600 race bike. His son races and instructs over there...

I used to play drums in the 80-90's..never played there, but a lot of chinese joints, Grovers, and sometimes a gig in Boston.

**mzdagrl** · 10-19-07, 05:57 PM

Welcome to the site. You ever bring that bling to Lowell bike night? You should go next season, it would turn heads there.

It's true, Oregon has the most well maintained roads I've ever fucking seen (see, you can do it). Like glass. Everything on their roads is sunk flush with the surface too (reflectors etc). So nice... They must repave every quarter or something.

**brendanp** · 10-19-07, 06:00 PM

Yup, no fukkin cops, no cars, no freaking speed limit! It was the best riding I have ever done.
BTW, nothing against po po, just dont like getting the tickets....
I already made this place my Home Page. I like the looks of this place, like knowing I can ride/meet with peeps a little closer to me.
How come I never see you mother fukkers out on the street??? LOL

Lord Gray or Marshal Law ring a bell?

Wouldn't be surprised if you know my bro or his old band mates. You're only a few years older & played there round the same era.

**brendanp** · 10-19-07, 06:22 PM

Marshall Law sound familiar. I also used to play The Bo King Rt. 1 Rowley That place was always deserted....
