Hello, I am Ecookman [obviously ].
Currently I am an off-road rider but hope to change that be the winter at the latest.
I have a year of riding experience and my fave time to ride is - you will all think I am insane but the middle of the winter. Some may ask how is that possible I say simple, one 40 dollar box of screw studs and yer good to go. Nothing beats getting looks of shock/awe/horror when people see you going to the trails in full snow gear on a dirtbike. That and drifting is easy... and plowing through powder is better done on a dirt bike than a snowmobile....imho that is.
Back on track - Since I have been a wee little guy who just started walking I have been fascinated with 2 things, Airplanes and Motorcycles. Both of these passions have grown greatly as I have entered and are about to exit High school. I am currently begining the long and hard pursuit of becoming a commercial pilot and the only thing missing is the bike to go with.
Today While doing research into where/how to go about purchasing a bike and the insurance I came across this Forum. It seems like a great community and since I live an hour out of Toronto I think I found somewhere else I can call home, for 2 wheels that is. I hope to get to know some of you, riding soon and doing group rides. [job permitting dam summer-school for slowing me down ]
