My Third Bike

2003 Suzuki SV650S

Ahhh, my baby. I love my SV! My friend Brad sent me a pic of the SV in early 2003. I saved the pic as "my xmas wish". Looking at that bike everyday is what finally made me get off my arse and sign up for MSF. When the time came to upgrade to a sportbike, I knew the only bike I was going to even consider was the SV. I picked up my SV on June 17th, 2004. After a few laps around my friend Dave's neighborhood, I was ready to test her out. It took me about a two months to get comfortable riding her and getting used to higher speeds. This bike does not like to go slow! So far my top speed is 112mph. I could go a little faster, but I need more open road...I've been doing my speed demon trials on 101 south (not a good idea).

3500 miles later, we're still doing great. I had one small incident up at 4 corners, which resulted ina new clutch lever, shift peg and bar end weighter. I just ordered a fender eliminator kit, to clean her up a little, and pretty soon she'll be due for a new set of tires! I am not planning to make any mods to my bike, I lover her just the way she is!

My Second Bike

1988 Honda Shadow 700

I bought the Shadow in November 2003. What a beautiful bike! She had only 3300 miles on her when I got her. She was in absolutely perfect condition! She ran great, and I learned a lot with her. The only drawbacks were the weight of the bike, and the seating postion. The bike was way too heavy for me ( yes, I dropped her...twice) and when I'd run over 55mph, I felt like a wind sail. Thats why I moved over to a sportbike. I think I regret selling her. She was paid in full, in perfect condition, and a lot of fun. I miss ya old gal.

My First Bike

1984 Yamaha Virago 500

This was my first bike. I got it from Unixgal (Emily) in October 2003. I had it for about 3 weeks, then sold it. As soon as I got it home, my dad took it for a run and we decided to take it to the shop for a full inspection. It backfired at the shop! and was basically a piece o' shit! I sold it to this dumb lesbian couple from S.F. They parked the bike on the sidewalk, got a ticket, then another...and then the bike was towed. It ended up being sold at auction, and I had to spend a good 6months proving I wasnt the legal owner of it anymore.

Donoho is Cool!

Tourist Information

golden gate bridge
One would think, its just a bridge, whats the big deal? This, is the big deal. The Golden Gate bridge is just so stunning. No matter if the sun is shining or the air is thick with fog, the bridge is always a spectacular sight.
