    Yet another newbie

    :spudguita Just signed in this afternoon.
    I may be going thru an (early) middle aged crisis but I'm just about to pick up my first bike in 25 years (Yamaha FZR750). This is a far cry from my early days on a TS90, but hey, sometimes you've gotta do what you've gotta do.
    This is a great site and I hope to contribute in some way.
    Look forward to reading threads and picking up some new friends on the way.
