Handle:ts250girl

Age: 30

Year bought first street bike: 1994

Type of bikes owned: too many to list, around 18 currently. Most of them are vintage dual purpose bikes (like Suzuki TS250), also a couple of 69 Husqvarna motocrossers, 2005 MZ 125SM and a few of scooters (2000 Italjet Dragster 180, 2 Yamaha Zuma 50s).

Certifications/Classes Etc: Current drivers license with unlimited motorcycle endorsement for WA state. Took the motorcycle safety course in 1996, and again in 2002 because the first one was so much fun I just had to do it again. The first class I took in December, in heavy rain which was a great way to practice skidding and other fun stuff.

General Experience: I've ridden on the street since 1996 (had a bike since 94 but I was a minor and my folks did not let me get my endorsement). I don't get to ride anywhere near as much as I'd like, so my actual riding experience is far from huge. Never crashed a bike (or car) on the street, only had a couple of minor falls in the dirt (once when landing from a jump with front wheel not pointing straight, oops)
