[NJSBMWR] Hi folks!

[Rick Shapiro]

I just want to introduce myself and hope this is the appropriate forum for
that. I have recently returned to riding after a decade or two halitus. I
was riding my 18 R1200RT this winter around Asbury Park when I ran into Don
Ellenberger (not literally) and he told me about this club.

I am 56 years old, and grew up in the Englishtown and Freehold area and
currently reside with my wife are two little ones (my dogs) in Monroe.

I love riding and try to find every excuse to find a way to get out and
ride, I am always open to organized rides but also am fine with
short-notice ad-hoc rides. Most of my riding occurs on the weekend and also
enjoy full weekend get-aways. My wife is new to motorcycles and I have been
getting her on the back more and more and she is getting more comfortable
with each ride.

For a hobby I play keyboard  in a classic-rock cover band and play one or
two weekends a month. Our regular gigs have been at the Cabin in Freehold,
Coltsneck Inn and Captains Inn in Forked River

So between riding and playing my weekends are pretty full, the way I like
it.

Anyway, I hope to meet you all soon and please keep me informed of any last
minute rides.

Regards,

Rick Shapiro
