Riders

A hodge-podge collection of scrappy riders have converged to embark on the second annual Spring Ride journey. These wayward riders are:

Bong A. – our intrepid leader and natural born instigator. His motto is “no crashing allowed”.  Bong tours on a BMW K1200S and gets into trouble with his Ducati 1098s.

A rare instance of Bong not riding his motorcycle.

This is how most people see Bong when he’s riding.

Marv T. – the mileage master, if you look closely at the lines engraved on his face you will find the many paths Marv has traveled on two wheels. Marv tours on a 2001 Honda CBR1100XX Blackbird. Read more about Marv.

Jim L. – In the mid 1960’s Honda had an advertising slogan that went “You meet the nicest people on a Honda.”  My cousin bought one of those new Hondas back then and gave me a ride.  I was hooked.  I got my first motorcycle in 1969 and ever since then, had one in my garage of some form or another.

I have been enjoying “sport touring” long before the term became embedded in the motorcycling language.  Currently I am working on wearing out my 2nd BMW, a 1993 K1100RS.  I bought my 1st version of this same bike in 1985.  Like this old faithful bike is to me, I am faithful towards my friends.  “You meet the nicest people on a motorcycle.”

Steve D. - I am the reserved one with a wild side. After riding for 35 years I just started group sport bike rides when the kids left for college 4 years ago. After a year of playing catch up on my old Honda 650 Nighthawk I picked up an ‘02 VFR800 and added over 50k miles to it and my ?85 700 Nighthawk S. I am really looking forward to sharing this adventure with the rest of the guys.
