Hi all!
As suggested by DG - Hengry's intro:

I still have all five digits on both hands and pray to keep it that way. I might be a disappointment to most of you as the bike I ride has pedals, and my knowledge of motorcycles is novice at best. But I've been aware of Ootmik for years now and have met several members as they've come through town, staying the night at Rench's place, who is my brother. He's suggested more than once that I check out the boards, and really it's past due as I've been sporting UTMC stickers on my vehicle and explaining "it's a cult, not a club" and "they're the good guys".
It's a pleasure to meet you all.

Fuck almighty, you mean it has a brother? Oh, jeez, I'd just assumed there was only one of him (other than the Renchlette and the Renchita)...

WELCOME!

Presumably you've noticed your brother still maintains all his digits, much to my dismay. Still, I owe Chi-town a visit sometime, and now that there are two of you perhaps I can make the trip worth my time...

Welcome Hengry. I'm finishing up a moto-free season myself, having committed to getting back on my bicycle for health and pleasure. I'm a road guy who enjoys riding on bad roads and trails, so I'm really enjoying the current 'gravel' trend in the bicycle world. What kind of riding do you like?

Jaeger, you're welcome in the Windy City any time. And to clear up any confusion right away...I'm Rench's sister, not brother.

Pattio - I pedal on pavement mostly running errands, blowing off steam and sometimes the first leg of my work commute to the train station. Nothing exciting, just working the heart and lungs a bit.

I saw the posts and pics of the acoustic ride at doom. That looked jangleplatz!

Welcome to one of our utmc inside jokes... We found ourselves using that superlative of awe too much, so someone tweaked the board to recognize and swap the word for our own version. It's pretty jangleplattes.

He didn't trick you into buying that shitty jeep with the portillos stickers did he? that thing was a billboard of UTMC and hotdogs.

Now go get a motorcycle. fuck buy the buell off schmucko when the EBR intros the new Uly like motorcycle he'll be buying that anyway. mark my words, Susan will never be able to stop him, sucker probably already has money stashed in the walls for it.

As for pinkys, I think a pinky toe would be suitable favor from a bicyclist.

I feel like me saying welcome would be somehow redundant. So yeah. Acknowledgement. And such. :mrgreen:

I see Rench's Acknowledgement and raise him some kind of overly emotional display of affection to embarrass him in front of his friends…
