Default Finally able to crawl out of my hole...

Howdy yall,

Been quite awhile since ive been on. Finally back in the 2-wheeled world again, but (dare i say) not a honda. Picked me up a GSX-R750 today. and so far so good.

Lots can happen in two years, both good and bad. My mom passed away last march after losing a hard fought battle with cancer. Had a brand new baby girl in November, and the boy will be 4 the end of this month. I quit smokin about a month ago, hardest thing i think ive ever tried doin and still aint outta the woods yet, but gettin there...

How bout yall?

Greetings. Condolences on the passing of your mother. A tough time. And congratulations on the birth of a daughter. You are forgiven for buying a non-Honda. It's the riding that is important, not what you ride.

Many close loses last year and this one too. Ya pick it up and keep going when you
have little ones depending on you. Life is what it is and take the good with the bad.

Congrat's on the babies man - Life and adding to it are wonderful experiences imo.

Good to see you back - even with a GSXR

Oh hell! Welcome back, Brandon!
So you've got a little girl now, eh? I managed the same while you were away.
I managed to quit smoking, too.
No new bike for me, though. Maybe this summer. Name:  grinning-smiley-003.gif

Welcome back and contests on the new girl (the small, "awww... How cute" breathing one)

And no worries. I grabbed a new non-Honda bike and they still tolerate me around here
