Hello all!

I've been more of a lurker on here for quite a while. But figured I had to introduce myself now.

On a quick ride out to the store I came outside to find a fellow admirer of bikes checking out mine. I was in such a rush after having bought a new tow that I didnt see another bike sitting right there in the parking lot, which was beautiful!

After having talked for a while he introduced himself as Crazy/BeemerBob. Having lurked for a while I recognized his name and figured I better come out of the dark so to speak.

So, hopefully Ill be a more active member since the ice has been broken. If anyone is up for a ride, I live out in the Riesel area. I'm a semi-new rider with a f650gs (single)

Ah, you met BeemerBob. Don't worry - as long as he didn't scratch you, you don't have to get the shot.

Seriously, welcome to TWT. Very nice bike you picked. We'll want pictures, of course.

There are lots of rides that take place with members up & down I-35 and particularly close to Austin. Just keep your eyes on these pages. Also, be sure to check the monthly Pie Run schedule. The next one's in Conroe, in just a couple of days.

puma13,

Welcome. There are several folks riding not too far from you in the Waco/Temple area.

Welcome to the club, If you avoid further contact with BeemerBob, you should avoid any quarantine issues!!

Nice to have you come out of the shadows.. Do post a few pics..

from Montgomery, birthplace of the Texas flag. And

from another BMW rider. (F800ST)

I don't know of the possibly contagious Beemer Bob causing concern, but I DO know he's a great "hugger"!!

Hope to meet you soon.
