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.


2004 Monster S4-R, I put the cans back on it.


My first time out on my 2000 R6


My FZR400!!! Now being ridden by 59 y/o guy!!!

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.
