Okay Taco Bender explained how it happened that he got his Screen name.
I used to race Bultaco M/C's and thats where taco bender comes from hehe.
I was wondering, because mine always crack they never bend.

I saw this done on other sites & posted on a Nighthawk site (so I know where DetDrBuzzard comes from, but I'll let him tell you).

Tell us how you picked your screen name. Even if it is obvious Two Wheel.

I'm Fossil92. Storyline is Sister, Brother-in-law & I started Formula Ford/Continental race team. Team name Fossil my car was #92

Let's hear it boys & girls.

When I had my 02 Orange Gold Wing I used the screen name CALIFORNIA ORANGE, because my bike was orange and I live in Calif. When I sold it and bought my 08 Titanium Gold Wing I didn't California Titanium was a good name and I figured rather than changing my screen name every time I sold my bike I needed something I could use all the time, so now I'm JOE IN CALIF.

Wow,this is going to be fun! I love hats (except baseball hats) and one of my favorites is a big ol' cowboy hat, kind of Clint Eastwood like. One of my friends instantly called me Poncho and that kind of stuck. Then the little lady saw an episode of The Simpsons which had bikers take over their home. One character was named Ramrod and for some bizarre reason she thought it suited me ! Funny how things come about. Well, lets get more stories.

Mine is probably obvious to some. Budo is the Japanese word for the warrior arts, and ka is the word for student or practitioner. Having been involved in martial arts in one form or another for just about as long as I've been riding motorcycles, and since I am both an active student and instructor, it just made sense to me to use budoka. My studies include Karate, Judo, Aikido, Kendo, Iaido, and traditional Japanese weaponry.:cool: Helps keep me fit and young at heart.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one trying to figure out the meaning of our peers names.
I had something else entirely & I'm embarrased to even tell you.

Great thread fossil92.
Thanks Fox I thought it was too the 1st time I saw it. It is kind of comical though that so many of the guys carry over CB handles. It shows that the old farts hang out here, You know youngsters aren't messing with CB's.

Keep them coming Guys!

Thought about using my old cb handle too, but "Galloping Alligator" is a tad too long to type all the time. Haven't got the cb on my new wing, but thinking about it. The young 'uns are too busy with their blackberris, and blue tooths etc to consider something as archaic as a cb radio. What's a carrier wave anyway?:eek:
(anyone born after 1970 likely wouldn't know that two way radios have one or heard of it)

I see we have a lot of new guys on board. Thought I'd put this back to the top maybe get a few more responses before it disappears into the forum abyss.
