I like racing motorcycles and making music. Also interested in Industrial Design and graphics. I sing, play guitar, bass, piano, and tiny bit of drums. I'm teaching myself the flute and the mandolin. I'm into fast cars, especially unusual ones. I'm learning to do bodywork and paint from a master. I like to race. I used to race dirtbikes and streetbikes. I raced in the AFM and CCS leagues til the money ran out. I was building a toyota truck to race circle track with, but now that I've moved I have nowhere to store it, maybe in a few years. Basically if it's fast, I like it. If it rocks, I do it.
I'd like to meet:
DRUMMERS!!!
People who are a bit more than what their exterior, whatever it may be, proclaims them to be. Musicians to jam with, poets, painters, welders, fabricators, engineers, designers. Motorcyclists, racers, riders, stunters, and cruisers, just no squids. Gearheads, fans of American muscle cars. Artsy Crazy Cool folks. And Folk singers with handlebar mustaches. Old friends who really were my friends and not two faced church sluts. Record Execs, Managers, People who can hook it up bigtime.
