I live about two hours from Salina. From the name I am glad to see I am not the only shovelrider in the group.

No, sir! There's a couple of us here!

And from your name I'm guessing you're a handgunner, too.

Welcome to the board, and congrats on the birthday. Ain't it amazing?

my bud used to run with sort of a biker AA group in salina... they called them selves dogs on the roof ...

I gotta confess, I picked my "nick" because I really like shovels. Actually I ride a Roadking, but I did'nt want to call myself that....I also passed up on the name "Fatboy". lol

Shove

I also am a shooter

shovel is a fine bike and a 44 is an awesome toy.
welcome.

BillJ · 12-15-2004, 08:54 AM

Toy? Not the ones I've shot! Kick like a

mule! :shocked:

I'm partial to .38s and .357s, myself. Just wish I had easier access to a shooting range.

tramp · 12-15-2004, 09:36 AM

Yo ho ho !

Leave my headlight alone, dammit!

Hi everybody. Long story short, I'm two months sober and a friend has invited me to Daytona Bike Week. I'm not a biker and I've already figured out that Daytona has as much to do with being sober as a pig has to do with a Jew keeping kosher. Nonetheless, I'm still asking: Are there meetings down there? A sober bikers' club?? Thanks for listening!

Gooch · 01-10-2005, 06:42 AM

Welcome dsc..

theres quite a few of us out there amongst all of them. At concerts, bike events, etc. with a litte research ahead of time you can find others that will be there. Sometimes sober contacts or meetings are listed at the event sites. Other times you can find us through the little telltale patches and helmet stickers. Warch for friend of BillW or Jimmy K patches. I meet up with some when I spot a clean and crazy or higher powered helmet sticker on a bike or some go to the trouble to leave hints in their bike's paint jobs.

Stick around. I bet the rest of the crew will be here to welcome you and give you some more tips..
