That is a sweet ride you have there Cory.
You might be young but you will be fine with this group. We have people of all ages and we are all friends. If we all had to be the same age Jay would not have anyone to ride with. (jk Jay)

Welcome to the Florida Crew.

Nice ride, Cory. Welcome to the group. Some of us, unlike 1of2, may have silver hair, but we are young in our minds and we like to ride. Look forward to meeting and riding with you. You will have to go on one of the 300 mile burger rides.

Welcome to the Florida Crew, Cory. The Crew is a bunch of great folks and 2 old grouches. Yes, we do have 2 Old Farts and one displays his official status proudly on the forum.

BTW: We are "those people" your parents told you about. Some of these folks even have tattoos.

Ride Safe -- Have Fun

Welcome to the Florida Crew Cory. I can't think of any active members that live in Orlando Proper but that does not matter as we meet up all over the place. The good riding is north of town for you. Hope to see you out and about soon. Be sure to check out the Rally thread up at the top. Be a great opportunity for you to meet almost everybody and you will have had some saddle time by then. If you need any advice about anything feel free to ask and remember there is no such thing as a dumb question. We as a group represent millions of miles and years and years of experience with these wonderful machines and are always happy to help.
