My name is Jon. Living in Texas, north of Austin, but well south of Dallas with my wife Susan and our 2 kids (dogs) Jack and Foxy. We are all California natives except for Jack. He was born and bought here.

Been ridin all my life, but the first half was on dirt. Fell in love with the street when a buddy loaned me his '72 Honda CB-350 when I blew the engine on my car. Moved up to an '82 Virago w/aftermarket pipes, blew that one up when I put the oil filter in backwards. STUPID!!!!! Don't drink so much beer when you decide to do your own oil change.

Finally, just last May I got the '08 Yamaha Raider S. Friggin love this thing. 1900cc's of pure V-twin pleasure! I couldn't believe what I was seeing when I first saw it. Fell in love and had to have it.
