Chris, I must say, I think this is your most intriguing topic yet. I couldn't resist it when I read the topic!
As for my story, well I'll share the best one, because I thank God it happened everyday...honest.
Here goes:
This happened about 3 weeks after I picked up my new CBR600F4. I don't know how it is in PA, but in Ohio the temp tags for bikes are as large as the ones for cars. This really sucks for a few reasons, not the least of which is that they look absolutely, totally HORRIBLE.
So anyway, after my loan finally was processed and I got my title in the mail, I made it top priority to go straight to the license bureau to get the real tags. I took my bike, of course, and just took the temp off when I got there (who says the tool kit is useless?!?). I walked in and prepared for a 15-20 min. wait. I also noticed that there was a beautiful Italian girl working behind the counter. This made the wait more bearable, as I had something to look at as I sat there (only when she wasn't looking, of course
).
My turn finally neared and I knew I was either gonna be waited on by the object of my interest, or some old lady who would think CBR was a typo.
Luckily for me, the old lady got distracted and I was waited on by "the one". It ended up that she knows a little about bikes, and she asked me about mine, who I take for rides, etc. I got the hint and asked her if she wanted a ride. She enthusiastically shook her head yes and gave me her number. I called her a few days later and we haven't stopped riding together, talking, or being friends since. I took her to Niagara Falls with me this past weekend and I am happy to say that it's now official: I have a beautiful girl and friend as my girlfriend.
She said she was gonna ask me to call her before she even knew I had the bike, but I know that having it certainly helped. I mean, how many girls get excited about cruising in an s-10 pickup? hehe...
Anyway, that's my story. I bought a bike, and ended up meeting a girl that is perfect for me. Whattaya think...?
