No worries, man. But if you already understood then that wall of text wasn't for you. It was for the dude who blatantly didn't get what I was saying.
I'm pretty sure I understand what the OP was getting at, and I was giving my take on it. That's what we do on the forums, right? We discuss things relevant to the theme of the forum?

So yes I want her to look good. I want her to run well. I want to develop a riding style that sets me apart from the 'feet dragging, knees sticking out further than their mirrors', gearless wonders running rampant in Philadelphia. I don't want to travel 20+ miles on the weekendsto get some place before I can apply what I know and have learned. The street will be outside my door 24 / 7. It will always be the place where my bike spends the most time (since its unavoidable).
So that's me and why I am. Someone wants to call me a squid? Personally I think they need a better definition.

PS
As soon as it opens up, I plan to sign up for the 2010 MSF Experienced Riders Course. When I get a 2nd bike, I will take on both track and stunt classes. The Poconos prolly have some decent twisties I can play in. And Pennsylvania is a huge place to explore. But all that is for the weekend. And anything I learn there I will still focus and apply on what's 24 / 7: the street

wair your tentacles proud Kuro... what has been said in this thread can be used for your benefit, read what you wrote... in one sentance you mentioned a safty course, track lessons, and stunt classes.. thats a big plate , slow down , enjoy riding for what its ment to be , FUN , peeps opinions of your "riding style" will always vary and your very detailed post of your life history will olny be used against you ,(sad to say). Dont worry about impressin the crowd , my best riding happens when theres not a soul near me to see it, and when you get off the bike and your knees are a little wobbly from addrenelin and your in one peice, youll know your doin it right. wear good gear , whatch out for cages, and work up to track/stunt. oh yeah , get used to body work if stunting is in your future. Peace bro

Sounds to me that he has found a new interest and is passionate about it.
Passion is something that is lacking in so many people today.
If that makes him a squid, then I'm a squid as well.

.....no matter how much passion they might have !!! ...
Wear full gear ...ride hard and take some care .... it all just great fun till you hit something wearing not enough protection ..!!!
I have seen way too many guys with passion in the hospital than I care to remember ...
