Name: Rich
First bike: Asian 80cc mini (think CT70)
First street bike: '73 Suzuki TC125
followed by: '75 Suzuki TS185
'78 RM125 (the start of my off-road days and 20+ year hiatus)
'94 F2 (approx 30k miles)
'02 F4i (30k and counting...)
Got my first bike in my senior year of high school, much to the dismay of my mom. Rode for over a year with just a permit. Eventually got my license because it was becoming too much of a bother taking my buddy's KZ1000 home from the bars at night with my permit.
Took 20+ years off of bikes while I raced offroad (and did a stint in the Air Force).
Got back into street riding when it looked like I was going to get divorced in '98...what the hell did I wait so long for?
MSF grad and attendee of the CSS in '04.
