For the Love of the Ride

         I would like to welcome you and thank you for reading my blog, as part of the Motorcycle community we all know that as riders it is important for us to look out for each other. I am the co-founder of Real Riders MC is southern California, where our motto is "For the love of the ride" which I think is very fitting for a true motorcycle rider. I was given the name Suicide Mike for my tendency to ride in the most insane conditions, my love for riding has really inspired me to share this sport with the world the best way I can through blogs and social media. I was hit by a car a couple years ago and sent to the hospital for about 3 months then stuck in a wheel chair for a few months after that but I still kept the love for bikes strong and attended all the club meetings in my wheel chair. The community of riders was very supportive of me by helping me get around at all the meetings, keeping me involved as much as possible. After I got my his bike was totaled and up to this point he has been saving for a new motorcycle but with this economy he has to keep pushing it back but he is still active in the Motorcycle community. I hope we can reach out to riders all over the world and create a community of knowledge and networking.

          This photo was take of me up in the mountains somewhere in SOCAL when I was riding with another club member. I rode a 2006 GSX1300R Hayabusa my dream bike. My first street bike was a 2002 Honda 600F4i, he bought it when he graduated from his school on Camp Johnson in the Marines. My dad and I would ride as often as he could whenever I would go home on leave. In 2006 I traded it in for the Hayabusa with 0 miles. In 2008 when I was hit by the car I had put over 36,000 miles on the bike, in fact when I bought the bike it was a Saturday and I was told to put 600 miles on the bike to break it in and bring it back in for maintenance. I brought the bike back on Monday (2 days later) when the shop was open again with 700 miles lol, and by the end of the week I had already put over 2000 miles on the bike.  

          Well thanks again for coming by and supporting the world of motorcycle riders, I am going to wrap this post up, I look forward to writing my next post and seeing you in discussion! Have a Great Weekend Everyone!!!
