I took my first MSF class and got my endorsement in 1986. Only because you had to have those two things before you could ride your bike on post. I don't think I would have done it otherwise, so I'm sure glad it was required.

So I guess this is my 20th anniversary.

Wow, I'm a total newb compared to alot of you! I've ridden dirt for about a year, just this year I got my M1. So I guess a year & a half total. I don't see quitting in my future, I love to ride.

'89 to present
yes
no

Ride a lot less now (mostly sport touring) but bikes were my only transportation for many years. Now I prefer BART for commuting to SF...but I used to ride everyday in NYC, many moons ago.

2-3 years somethin' like that, ask Liam he got me started. I can tell you that I'll not count the years, cause they're already flyin' by way too frickin' fast. Had two kids, time quickens; got my first bike all concept of time is lost. Summer's gone in a flash of flying tentacles and half naked squid. Winter isn't much better, because I enjoy the solitude of the lighter traffic. Concluding, it's all gonna be gone way too fast, don't count it, enjoy it!

BTW, I'll be riding to the bitter end!

2004-present= a lil over 2 years

about 40k miles

ride rain or shine (bike only means of transpo)

Furthest i've gone was to San Diego (have ridden to reno in the pouring rain and not fun!!!)

Been through rain storms, hail winds, minor goat trails but no snow

Have not been to the track yet, but plan to

Have had some accidents

Took an intro class to moto mechanics

Preformed minor/basic services on my bikes

Have a couple of books on becoming a better rider as well as mech books

As long as I live I see myself riding, and learning all I can to becoming better

I don't see myself stopping soon...well unless I of course die

i got my M1 in january after a long hiatus from a youth of off road trail riding/hare scrambles.

it's even more fun now. i feel like i'm getting away with something everytime i snick the gear shifter into 1 and pull out onto the street :) :)

you see, we used to connect a lot of trails using county roads when i was a kid. i guess that feeling hasn't left me yet :)
