I have been using motorbiketim for a long time. I got hooked on motorcycles when I was a kid, a gentleman next door to my parents house always had a couple of motorcycles in his garage. I would hang out in his garage and anoy him with pestering questions. Finally got my first bike at 17 (a honda cb175). That was over 25 years ago and still riding.

Well my nick means what it means...Obviously a mix between Bob Marley and Harley Davidson.

It's the same nick I use in the Portuguese Forum

My initials are RS and aures is pronounced that way (it was also a man's cologne from Avon several years back

). I added the three zeroes just for the heck of it.

I've lived in a state with a beach on the west most of my life.

Nung & BB. thanx or the Trane ref's........Green Dolphin Street, huh? need to find that. On a Miles CD or Coltrane?....different versions?

derStuka.
thanx for the thread & thanx for the avatar.....looks like getting to the Pozo Saloon is half the fun........

I'll give it a try once I'm relocated!

Badbilly · 04-06-2008, 12:01 PM

The exact title is "On Green Dolphin Street". Just a guess. it should show on discographies for both Miles and Coltrane. Real popular tune for years in jazz circles. My hope is that Diana Krall will do it one day once she gets shed of, shall we say, the influence of Elvis..

The "Left Coast" works for me too. I'm a rock throw away from the beach in Oregon. Except for a few years doing my bit for Uncle Sammy, The West is fine with me. Now if somebody could just warm up the water here a tad...

I grew up sort of surrounded by beach, I was born and lived on Catalina Island. Well, some rocks and stuff too. Life ain't always a beach. ;)

Bikewise, I think next weekend is the 50th Anniversary of the Catalina Grand Prix.

VFRShorty · 04-06-2008, 01:10 PM

mine is pretty simple, I love my VFR and I am short - 5'2 without stilettos

vmotorman · 04-06-2008, 08:04 PM

Mine is for the "V" motors I own, as well as those I ride everyday! Just wish I could get more "V" motors in the garage!

SilverSurfer800 · 04-07-2008, 11:27 PM

Well my user name came from one of my favorite comic book heroes when i was younger. I just happen to own an '05 Silver VFR and the act of carving those long high speed corners reminded me of surfing a continuous series of waves. 800; that's obvious...

MrJoelieC · 04-08-2008, 07:37 AM

Is it bad that your avatar distracts me...It's almost hipnotic..... LOL

Yes, it's very bad... It means back away from the computer, go outside and ride or buy stock in hand lotion...

Nungboy · 04-08-2008, 09:56 AM

SilverSurfer! You have me laughing! I have pointed out before that it truly is a fascinating avatar. I think it is because it is because it is so cartoonlike that we keep watching...something about the mind getting crossed up between the reality we might like to see and the obvious synthetic nature of the image and the inherent intellectual confusion created.

NAH! GUYS JUST LIKE THAT KIND OF THING!!!

Nungboy · 04-08-2008, 12:53 PM

I am sorry Randy, I am Elaine, Mr. Nungboy's interpreter, what Mr. Nungboy meant to say was that he likes the perky bounce too! Please forgive any confusion.
