the_silverfox Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hey Everyone -I'm a new transplant to Columbus, OH by way of Orange County, CA. Just introducing myself to the forum. Here's a little about myself. I've been riding for about six years and have traveled all over the United States on my 2007 Yamaha FJR1300. I am the former director of the Orange County Spirit Riders, a chapter of Women On Wheels. Although it was a bit hard to say goodbye to legal lane splitting and months without rain, there's a lot more open road out here to explore! I've ridden to Columbus from CA a couple times but now I'm here to stay.I hope to restart the lost Women On Wheels chapter that was once here in Columbus. Looking forward to meeting everyone else and swapping some bike knowledge!Christine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomcat0403 Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Welcome to the site! Good to have you here! I believe Hue Jass has a FJR 1300 right, they are very nice bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_silverfox Posted September 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 Hardly. You can actually "live" in Ohio rather than scrape by on rent every month. Other than the large selection of twisty canyons, CA is so overrated. Besides, living there for a quarter century was a bit too long for me.

I lived out there for the last 4 years due to being in the Navy and it pretty much sucked! I love it here in Columbus! I've been all around the world and would rather come back here than any place else! That must say something!My other half is a transplant from CA as well. He followed me here. LOL.Welcome to the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_silverfox Posted September 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 No massive wildfires either, so theres that to look forward to.Yes, CA is still burning to the ground. It'll be 101 degrees in La Habra tomorrow (where I used to live). Seems like jumping in the ocean is the only solution to avoiding the heat. I'm so not missing that.

the_silverfox Posted September 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 what is the obsession with the gays? these gay comments just came out from nowhere. Yeah, no clue. Although that stereotype pretty much applies to NorCal, half of Long Beach, and all of West Hollywood. CA might as well be its own country. Maybe split it into two states like the Carolinas...
