New Chicago Guy

Hey everyone. Been posting for a few days, but just remembered that I hadn't done the intro. So, here we go. 29yr old guy from Chicago who grew up on dirt bikes while I was younger. Bought my first street bike about 4 years ago...a KLR 650. Not a far jump from the dirt bikes of my youth. Got rid of the KLR after 2 seasons. Just picked up a custom KZ750 Bobber from a guy that lives about an hour from me. Its all freshly rebuilt, painted and bobbed. Here are some pics:

Looking for some fellow Chicago riders to ride around town with. Let me know if you are in the area.

I'm running the relay from St Joes Michigan to Beloit Wisconsin and was planning on riding up Lake Shore Drive starting at McCormick Place if I could find some Chicago riders that were interested.

Your last name wouldn't start with an "S" would it ?

JD, I would definitely ride that leg from McCormick place with you. I actually live about 8 blocks from there.

And, no...my last name does not start with an "S". It's actually an "H".
