Have you met other RRBers?

I tried to meet up with some at Ann Arbor/Saline show in Michigan last year but didn't. Hope to meet up with some next year at the show.

I'll be there again... It will be my third year

Hmmm, good idea...meeting up at events. Bri in RI told me there will be a swap in Dudley, I think he said something like 23 Feb. If the swap happens I'll be there looking for whatever. So, if any of you Ratrodbikers or NERRBS are there I'll be wearing my blue RRB tee shirt and would love to put a face to the handle.

I met a couple of guys at Discovery Green in Houston a couple of months ago during the Korean Festival downtown. Don't remember their names, but they had some cool long bikes with aluminum flats on one wheels and some 1940s frame on the other one.

We got to talking but after 10 minutes my wife was nudging me to go home.

Yeah but I cheat and invite them to stuff and let them win trophies sometimes. Bringing extra bicycles to out of town events so people who have to fly in helps. Plus the T-Shirts kind of give me away. That and giving away club trophies at events. I thought about naming people but they know who they are and maybe they don't want to admit they know me

How many of you have met up with other RRBers?

A couple of years ago I though it was very cool for me to meet up with RRBer Jake a different state. We talked bikes for 4 hours and didn't even take a photo.

Then Josh from ga came up to Savannah and we went on a ride around town.

Then I rode Fugsley down to a restaurant to meet DrTankenstein and family while they were vacationing in Savannah.

Well tonight I met up with another RRBer in another country!
Outlaw3 (Ruslan) met my wife and I tonight in Kiev, Ukraine. It was a fun time.
This young guy has some cool bike building skills! I told him he needed to post pics of his earlier builds. His current build is the wicked Firebird TransAm build.

Here we are at the Black Piglet.

I lost count but Steve technically lives right down the street so...

Nope

I’ve met Steve at the swaps in Garland, bought parts from another guy locally that I can’t remember his name, and just bought a bike from Oddrodal this weekend. Also frequent Clyde James shop and drop him some coin.

Brian...you sure do get around. :shock:

Since this old thread, I have met up with RRBers in Paris, France and Manila, Philipines. Also others here in Savannah as they were passing through in addition to Fordsnake in Berkeley, CA and two more times with Jake in Philly.

Around a half dozen or so between CL deals and bike swapmeets/shows.
