16, male, single, family in nh.
in high school, part time jack of all trades.
riding a rebuilt huffy mountain bike with china 70cc since October
bought the kit to ride to have something motorized i could take on the road.
haven't had it long but i love it and will be trying all the mods i can, doesn't seem to run well in the winter though... maybe its my mix again... gotta stop eyeballing that stuff.

hopefully build a full suspension.

There is another thread just like this going....but I'll jump in here too.

Self employed genius visionary/bike builder/restorer/thrill seeker.

Ex musician, used to play everything but the drums (although I did stand in on a gig as drummer....uh, yeah.) Recorded two CD's and a single.

Was "killed" by drunk driver on Dec. 30 1997 for three+ minutes, but they got me going again....long recovery. The drunk dissapeared after her court date and was never seen again- no "I'm sorry" no restitution, nothing!

I own a pile of bikes and motorcycles including a 1961 Cariolo Bondone 100- the only one known to exist in the U.S. of it's type in original condition.

47 years old, married for 25+ years, four daughters, all grown and moved out.

Anything else? Yeah, a bunch, but I won't bore you with it.

O.K., maybe I will, I used to race canoes....I still hold a record with my Dad for the Mahoning River Challenge" We beat the record in our class by a whopping 6 minutes (the race was up stream, around a pylon, and back downstream to counter act and current advantages or dis-advantages.)
