Well, I have survived my first 6 months of riding. Here is to many more years

 

there ya go... good for you. Are you riding daily?

Statistically the most dangerous time for any rider is actually AFTER the become somewhat proficient at riding and they begin to either let there guard down or begin to ride more confidently/aggressively

Rubber side down

 

Good stuff. Keep the shiny side up.

 

you wouldn't happen to be a marine on pendleton would you ?

 

Excellent. Keep on ridin man.

 

Nice! I have just completed a year of riding. And I have read that after one year, it's one of the most dangerous periods according to statistics, like Schu said, you become more aggressive/confident because you THINK you know how to ride well.

Keep raking up the miles

 

On my 08 I have racked up over 6k miles.

I'm not a Marine at Camp Pendleton. I'm Reserve, however Im going there tonight through sunday for the range, then in Jan I'm moving there since my unit is activating.

 

ive been riding for 4 years and owned 5 bikes. ive done roughly 60k miles and hope to do millions more!

 

Good Luck dude. Try not to develop any bad habits.

 

Congrats Man i have also just completed my 6 months however she was dumped twice . Cant wait for spring i hate the winter for more reasons now.

 

Good job man. I just started riding couple weeks ago. Just got finished riding as I type. Have you taken the MSF basic? Navy/Marines are requiring all riders to take the course. Trying to squeeze one in but my command keeps ****ing up and it got canceled/modified 3 times in the last 2 weeks.

 

what part of iraq you coming to?you wouldnt happen to be part of rct8 would you?im in ramadi now and it really blows.just a lot of protests and an occassional ied,or vbied,or svbied.

congrats on completely an semi-annual yr of riding

 

Nice. I too just hit my 6 month mark and 6k+ miles!

 

That sorta an issue, they ****ed up and overbooked the class, I gotta find time to make in to an open spot now. Imma call tomorrow.

I dunno yet, Im with a reserve artillery battery, we may go to Afghanistan. So we don't know where we are going yet, lol. If Iraq, Al Asad or TQ is what we heard.
