Greetings from Weston FL (near Miami). I’m fortunate enough to have a small collection of Vintage BMWs, including a K1 imported from England and a K100. 

Mostly as a hobbie, with a friend, I have built a few K100 cafe bikes and in the process have found invaluable information in this forum. I thought it was time for me to register and introduce myself. 

Looking forward to meeting you here!

Greetings Santiago, and welcome on here and also from Ireland.
 Funny enough I also have a brother living up the road from you in North Lauderdale.
He's more into boats than bikes, though he's had a few of them too

Hi All, thanks for all the welcome messages. Small world indeed, looks like there are many more Irish in FL than I thought (I moved here from Boston).

Cheers.

Of course there's an Irishman in Boston. Wouldn't be any fun if there weren't!

Enough of this talk about Ireland, although I have an Irish name and family heritage from Cork, this welkome is from Australia.

Nice to hear that you have been playing with K bikes for a while and have now chosen to get on board.

Cheers

Funnily enough, I don't have a brother in Florida but I also have an Irish surname, have been to Cork, Tampa, Orlando and Kissimee and live in Australia.  

I have been playing with K bikes for a while and got on board a few years ago.

Oh, and by the way, WelKom.

Actually I am one of the few Anglo Aussies that don't have any Irish ancestory. Most of the others have some boast about a connection to that F%^&*n Blarney stone or or that stupid Post Office that took up 134 city blocks or the like.  Mine is all Scots.
Why was Orlando so cold because the dumb F*#@*6s kept complaining about global warming so they got something to complain about. Hello from Florida 44271 Hello from Florida 44271 Hello from Florida 44271
