I fell off my first Honda 50 at age 5
smashed my fingers on trees from yz & gt 80's by 12
Had street 750's and a DR 350 as an adult in both Europe (Navy) and NJ

Moved to Florida, and sold my bike after driving here for a few weeks... decided i would rather live than ride and die with all the horrible drivers here in the Tampa area (either blue hairs who shouldn't be on the road anymore, or young punks in their modified Hondas and Mazdas driving like idiots).

That's when i bought my first boat... a Hobie16
