Title: Where y'at?
Post by: Phriday on August 23, 2009, 05:20:41 AM
Hello from New Orleans!

Bought a brandy-new Monster 1100 (red) last week, and a guy I met at the dealer recommended this group.  I've done some poking around, and have decided to stay.  Y'all look like a fun bunch, and I'm glad to be a member. 

I've been riding for about 15 years on and off, and it was, oddly enough, the Ducati Monster that got me started in motorcycling.  I first saw a photo in '94, and thought, "It will be mine.  Oh, yes.  It will be mine."

Only took me 15 years!

Thanks for a great forum, and I'll see you around!

Phriday

Welcome to the DMF!   :)

Congrats on the new bike, glad you finally got your Monster. [beer]

+1 on pictures, we do always love bike pictures if you have any. ;)

Welcome, Phri. I'm betting you ran into Cory at the dealer. You can find me there most Saturdays  ;D . I live in Houma, but I spend most of my weekends in NOLA and will hopefully get a place up there this winter.
We have a local board, but it's really not active at all - maybe we can change that. Hope to ride with ya sometime - there's at least 1 or 2 good roads down this way if you want to come down. pm me if you need contact info.
