The Social Network & Community JUST for Firefighters
Let's get this party started
Hello everyone,
I see we have a handful of Brothers and Sisters who ride and have joined our little Virtual Riding Group, so let's start the introductions...
I'm an Active Duty Soldier and currently stationed in South Korea with the U.S. Army (so i'm between Firefighting gigs...) and I'm scheduled to return to the U.S. next Summer and I'm getitng close to retiring form the Army to go into my true profession -Firefighting - full time. I've been a volunteer for a few years and am almost done with my Fire Science and Occupational Safety and Health Degree (dual major).
I ride a 2006 Harley-Davidson XLC1200 Sportster, which I ordered while in Kuwait a couple of years ago and brought with me to Korea! I love riding in Korea, and the 1200 is the perfect bike for doing so, with all of the traffic in Seoul, but can really open 'er up in the countryside (where I live about 40 mile South of Seoul). My 8 year-old daughter is my passenger most of the time and has her own HOG membership as my passenger! My wife rides her own XL883Low, and is also a Soldier.
Now that you all know a little about me and my riding, let's here a little about everyone else!
Stay safe and keep the shiny side up and the rubber side down!
Oh, and hey....stay visisble out there!

Hey Greenman. Thank You for what you and your wife are doing for all of us at home. I live in western Nebraska. not a lot of nice riding days. I have a 94 sporty 883. My husband has an 86 dyna. I used to have a Ninja, that was fun. A lot easier to ride the hills around sturgis. I have been a volunteer for 13 years, my grandad was a volunteer and chief forever in Harrison, My dad has been a volutneer for about 30 years. Grew up on a ranch where when there was a fire, everybody went. At least I have a grassrig now instead of a shovel and gunny sacks. The biggest part of our calls are ems. I have been a nurse for 15 years. I work in a OB GYN clinic now, love the hours. worked in a minor trauma walk in clinic for four years before that. I starting riding dirtbikes when I was 12, chasing cows on the ranch. started on street bikes about 12 years ago. Take care and stay safe

Hello all. I married my best friend 20 years ago in june of 87. I ride a 03 Honda VTX 1800. My wife and I put about 12000 miles on a year, we love to ride. I have been a firefighter for 15 years.
