Hey everyone,
My name is Anthony and I live in Pearland (well, technically Manvel, but that little bit of Manvel surrounded by Pearland). Fairly new rider; did MSF last year and bought a Yamaha MT-03. Realized recently it felt like I had training wheels on so I traded it in for a Honda CBR650R (pictured, nicknamed the Wendigo) and now it feels like I’m on a proper motorcycle. Really excited to join here and talk about all things bikes!

I was in Jr. High in Alvin when they built the "new" Harby Jr. High out in Manvel, but did not end up being sent to that school after it was finished. Hwy 288 ended at Hwy 6 back then. I have in laws down in that area in Manvel and Alvin. Whenever I get down that way I am always blown away by how much the area has grown, even in just the last 10 years. That is a tough area to live in if you ride a motorcycle, as in there aren't many fun places to get out and ride if you aren't into just cruising. I think there is a track down by Hitchcock though where you can do trackday classes. Doing one or two of those is definitely worth the money if you can swing it. They will do wonders for your riding skills!
It’s Pear-land, so named after the abundant pear trees that were here when the city was first being established. The city has actually made a lot of decorative changes in the last few years with a heavy emphasis on a “pear” motif and some of the designs are really pretty cool.
& enjoy!
