Titanium Cranium Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Hi everyone, I figured I would introduce myself to let you all know the basics about me. I just moved to Miamisburg from Phoenix in October. This is my first time living anywhere other than Phoenix so yeah, it's a bit of a shock. But a good one:D I'm a bodyman/painter and used to have my own motorcycle only bodyshop out there. I merged it with another business and when the economy took a dump I got laid off and moved here to be with my fiance. I am a sport rider and have been racing for the last few years with Roadrace SW/ CCS out in Phoenix. My RC51 street bike was stolen awhile back so now my AMA Supersport CBR 600RR is my daily driver. At least when the roads aren't covered in snow and ice. I don't know where the good riding spots are out here yet so I'm sure I'll be tagging along on rides when the weather is better to learn where the good places are.

garysol1 Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Welcome to the state and to the site. We lived in Gilbert for a bunch of years so I can relate. While I miss certain aspects of living in AZ the weather is not one of them. Ill take our crap winter in trade for our glorious spring, summer and fall any day. I remember dreading getting on my bike to ride to work during the PHX summer..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolWhip Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 ohio has it's ups and downs... Everyone who grows up here swears we will leave one day. Some do, some don't, and the ones who do leave, often come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanium Cranium Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Thanks everyone! I think I'm adjusting to the snow pretty well considering I'm a desert rat. I actually love the winter so far with the only exception being that I can't ride. I see that there are quite a few shooters here too. I need to find where the good places are to shoot. In Phoenix you just drive a little ways outside of the city and set up almost anywhere but I don't think we can do that here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e-flores Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Welcome!!! I am in Franklin like 2min. From miamisburg, when life gets a little warmer I will be more than happy to show you around town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanium Cranium Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 I'm sure I'll be taking you up on that offer e-flores. I'm already liking it here a lot. It's definitely different than Phoenix. But I lived there for 30 years so I was ready for a new adventure in life. I have a feeling the humidity this summer will be harder to handle than the snow though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serpentracer Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 (edited) first of all, welcome to the site.you'll get used to wearing the air in the summer, and squirming out of your suit.. lolit only gets unbearable for a few weeks at a time. it's not too bad. if you still ride the street you'll have to hook up with us boys from down here around cincy...we know a lot of great twisties in the country side of kentucky. I'm talking about hours worth of riding and not on the same road. btw...if you want to start up a painting shop give me a shout. I want to do something like that myself. I've painted my stuff a bunch of times and a couple customers stuff. but I'm still new at it so to speak.I just want to pick your brain LOL.you moved to a great central location to a bunch of tracks too. Mid ohio, putnam park, grattan, beaveRun, nelson ledges, gingerman, and hopefully soon (was supposed to be completed in 2009) 20 min south of cincinnati, bluegrass.
