Thanks for the welcome!
I never really got a chance to get involved with TWF so in that regard, I guess I'm a newb here
I'm riding a 2010 Honda CBF1000 that I hunted down brand new in 2012 because I liked the colour. I flew to Calgary and bought it 'butt unseen' and rode it back to the Island. I've been riding since 2005 when I snuck off on a whim and got my license. My hubby was uber happy and helped me hunt down my first bike to learn on: 1983 Suzuki GR650 Temptor
I've also owned a VF500 Interceptor, Katana 600, R6, R1 and a VFR800.
I don't ride as much as I like but mostly because I'm not a huge fan of gearing up to ride 15-60 minutes around town. I'd prefer to ride 1000+ km and be gone at least overnight, multi day is even better! SmallTown, USA, roads that show up on maps as 'Closed in Winter' and 'Anywhere National Forest' are usually the best bets
