I was riding two up on my CB900c down this hilly road, and the guy behind me on a Gixxer1k said I was airborne over every hill. When I got into m/c forums I was airborne900c, then when I got the XX...

Being young and silly, I loved all the trick carbon parts on sportbikes. Also fancied myself a bit of a speed demon. Started off as trickracer, but then shifted to trkracer. I've had it ever since '94, so now it's like an old friend (but, I still love trick carbon and... might.. still.. go fast... from time to time... ). BTW, awesome thread! |

It started with the Seinfeld episode. My jewish friend refered to me as a "rural hipster doofus" (after the famous Kramer quote: "am I a hipster doofus?" and the fact I live in a small town north of Calgary) I dropped the doofus portion as it made the name too long and hipsterdoofus was already taken on hotmail and a few other sites I frequent. so I became ruralhipster. |

I bought a TL1000 back in 1997, first year production (what an absolute POS, too). I only had the TL less than a year, but I had applied for EVL TWN for a tag. I started using that as my nick on IRC (that's where I know Conqsoft from) at the same time. The name just stuck. I kept the tag, and when I bought my Night Train in 2000, I transferred that tag to it.

well if you could have 7 letters on your plates, that's what I would have, BUT since we can only have 6, guess it just has to remain a board name... I do plan on getting 11DBLX in future....unless I come up with something better!

Well mine came about because I have been involved in IPSC ( pistol shooting ) since 1987 and have always used a 1911 pattern firearm, 1st a Colt 1911 Govt .45 then in the early 1990's a company called Para Ordnance started making a high capacity frame that would allow you to drop most of your std Colt .45 parts into their frame and gave you an increase in magazine capacity from 7 or 8 rounds to 13 or 14 rounds. I used this Para .45 to win numerous competitions including 6 Western Australian State Titles and a Australian National Title so it had a lot of sentimental value and when I first started getting onto the IPSC International and Australian forums I chose this as my log in and forum name. Since then those forums have done away with "Nicknames" but I still use it for my log on and on other forums as it is easier to remember just one name I also upgraded to a custom Para .40 cal built by the late Peter Murphy and then when our arsehole govt changed the regulations to restrict pistols to .38 caliber I converted the .40 to .357 Sig and my (Old Faithfull) .45 to .38/45 both bottle necked cartridges based on the old cases. Here is some pics of my current .40/.357  |

Chaser is the name of my charter boat, I've been in operation in Key West for 33 years. Name of the business is Chaserkeywest. After awhile the locals attach you to your boat so many boat people would refer to me as Chaser. As do most of the Air line Stu's I've met over the years
