Queesha, May I be the first to welcome you to this fine and respectable institution (but you already know this  ). I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

I can hardly say welcome aboard as you've been here for a while. Good to hear from you though.

Hey Man, I've been lurkin' awhile myself. They call me a stranger, but I've been riding good British iron since my '53 MA & '66 BSA. There have been a few bad choices of rides over the years, but along came my '03 BA, and I've been riding happily ever since.

Thanks for taking the plunge.  Waters are usually pretty good..., except when Dwight warms it up!  (I couldn't resist buddy!) So what do you ride?

Welcome, Everyone here's a lurker, some of us are just more vocal about it.
Dwight actually lives in North Platte, Nebraska, he gleaned all those southern California references from listening to the Beach Boys and hanging around bike shops as a youth. Phil lives in the next town over, no one in Florida has actually seen him. Although there was a photo of Phil "appropriating" homebrew from Dinqua last year.

No, I don't mean Ruples or scruples. Jasper, AB? Look at an atlas.

Q.
Hey, the road to Jasper sorta passes through the neighborhoods of three of us, Freedom, Roadie and me. Let us know when you're coming through. Consider planning your trip (if the date isn't already set) around the Kootenay RAT Raid in Nelson, BC. It's typically the third weekend in July.
