Otherise welcome again!! You should post up some photos of your bike for us.

Thank you for the warm welcome! I'm afraid I have conflicting plans -- though Montage is lots of fun -- but I am happy to see that there are so many Portland people here.

Now, if only summer (or at least spring) would start...

VFRShorty · 06-10-2008, 07:50 PM

Thats too bad!! I am sure I will see you around sometime (if I haven't already... if you see a RWB 2g cruising around it is more than likely me!)

The weather is getting better though, especially the rest of this week!

I've heard Portland, OR is the pound for pound, most liberal city in the country. Is that true?

KC-10 FE out...

VFRShorty · 06-10-2008, 08:33 PM

It is pretty liberal..... but there are far worse!! It is still good enough for a R like me..

I finally took a break from riding long enough to snap a picture of my bike. I borrowed some background scenery from Lewis and Clark College. I love the matte black finish on the bike, but it can make the bike disappear in photographs.

Thanks again for the warm welcome!
