I keep on seeing Cakes on the TPM board plugging this site, so I figured I should join up and hopefully have a fun place to visit when I get tired of looking at internet porn (well, at least when my wrist does). :)

A little history:

I'm 33, married (which explains the wrist joke), no kids (which is why I have time for the wrist thing), but my wife and I are adopting.

I like hardore and punk music, but there's a lot of metal in my record...err...cd collection, as well as some real country.

I ride a Ducati Monster S4-R and have an R6 trackbike. I had an FZR400 for about 6 1/2 years, as a track bike before the R6. I'm back in the Blue group at TPM events (after slowing down from crashes and lack of time and money for tracktime). I have a love/hate relationship with the Monster. I love it June-September, but miss fairings once it gets cold. It's a fun bike. My R6 has about 9000 miles on it and is getting hard starting. I'm going to have to do the valves in it soon. I've done about 6 trackdays with it so far and I love it. I wish I bought one years ago.

blitz, how can you get the 50 to stoppie? the one at my house just seems to roll through the pads or starts sliding around on the knobbies...

i have to say, the 50 is one of the funnest things i've ever rode.

without a doubt it's the best money I've ever spent, it's a blast. But to stoppie you need to lean like a mofo and be prepared to get hurt, it's dangerous as hell. The furthest I've been able to roll one was like 25' and it was iffy the entire time, I thought I was going over like 3 different times.

i've drug the hell out of the tail on my buddy's 50. unfortunately, i've crashed it everytime. no one told me wheelies are easier if you don't try to go for second.

thanks for the big welcome all...
