Title: Howdy - friend of Tigre here
Post by: AJ on February 02, 2011, 10:15:53 PM
Hi folks,
I'm AJ, I'm a new member, live in SF, new to riding (5 months), currently riding a Nighthawk 250 and in the market for an M696 or M620ie.  I found y'all thanks to Tigre - we go way back to those Boston days when the TigerBike was just a cub.

Speaking of cubs, and I can't believe I'm admitting this, but it was Tigre who first got me interested in Monsters.  Riding down Mass Ave late one night Tigre popped a bigass wheelie and what can I say, his shameless antics worked, I thought the TigerBike was the coolest thing I'd ever seen.  (Of course the tiger showboating wasn't for my benefit, it was for the 3 hot guys in the car with me...)

Fast forward to SF - TigerBike grew into a symphony of orange & black & grrrrrr, I was getting rides on my friend's S2R 800 (red, white racing stripe) and my boyfriend got an M900 (dark).  Now I'm looking for a Monster of my own!  

It was great to meet y'all at Zeitgeist last week - the banter, squirrel catapults, cool hat & Tigre crash stories were lots of fun.  I could have lived without pedobear, though.  Was that Warren's idea?  I should've known better...

What else?  I'm not a big donut fan, but I adore bacon and bacon chocolate.  
Once I get a Monster I'll post pics!

I wondered who you were. Hope we get to talk more next time.  Maybe at Tigres futball party?

All the best,

AJ: welcome aboard.  You've been to the 'geist night, but now that you're online, you're "official."  (BTW: that is about the right blend of being nice to be and tiger-bashing...  though most here would dial higher on the tiger-teasing).

Desmostro: AJ's out of town this weekend.  Too bad.

Cheers,
Steve

w00t!  And tiger-baiting is so much fun!
 Seriously though, I hella heart TigerBike.  And for the record, Steve's abode in Boston was the most James Bond bachelor pad I've ever seen.  Minus the automatic weapons ( I hope).

I was supposed to be in DC this weekend, but my connection in Dallas was canceled thanks to the freak snow/ice storm there, so I may show up on Sunday after all.  Must be a nightmare for the folks who shelled out $$$$$ for Superbowl tix...

Likely.  It often is.  ;D
