Howdy - friend of Tigre here

« 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!

It was great meeting "The Dude" at long last. She brought us some epic beer.

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...
