    New Ohio Guy (Post Fixed!)

    So I screwed up the first post...but Im bound and determined to get this correct ! The same friend who steered me to this site.....sold me the 3 wheeler Ive wanted for 25+ years !! A 1985 250es Honda Big Red !! Its gonna have a fun life ! Pulling around firewood , pulling a sled in the winter , mud runnin every once in a while , and puttering around looking for shed deer antlers !
    Im looking forward to learning a lot here...and getting some cool projects of my own !!

    Great area, know it all to well. I've worked all over NE Ohio over the years. Sort of picked the shores to be somewhat centered in the middle of it all. It's sorta cool to be able to cruze over to the gas station on a atv or sled in the winter and run my dual sport for hours on gravel roads with no grief. It amazes me how much the little towns blew up , Streetsboro, Middlefield, Aurora, and Chardon were stoplights and corn fields. We use to ride a lot over by Windham by the arsenal till it got shut down by the govmt.

    to me what's ironic is, i used to work for Kocheys cycles from early '83 until late '86, one year they threw a company picnic at the beach of roaming shores!!...........
