What does your forum Name mean or represent?

[venturesome]

Venture: an undertaking involving uncertainty as to the outcome.

I also ride a Venture, so it has a double meaning when I "venture some"!

[frodotoo]

During my time in the Navy in the mid 70's my buddies used last names all the time and mine was shortened from Fredock to Fredo and then they added Frodo. I was introduced to new people as Fredo and they always mentioned "You can call him Frodo too"

It was known as the Hemi killer back in the day. Especially if it was a stage 1

Which Stinks for me BC I was a MOPAR fanatic back in those days. A bit younger to own and have one, but those cuda's, GTX, charger, challengers, road runners, cornonets etc all were just smoking cars

[ragtop69gs]

Back in the day I had a '67 Coronet 440, it was a great car till I decided to go blasting through a meadow filled with ferns and found a tree stump which tore out the core support and moved the engine cross member back about 4" and broke the tail shaft off the transmission YES it was a quick stop!

I have owned at least one of each car you list. I still have my high school car which is a 1968 Fastback Barracuda 340 4 speed all original I've had it since April 26th 1976. Guess you could say I'm still a Mopar fanatic. My daily driver is a 1999 Dodge Durango with a 360, my truck is a 1996 Dodge 3500 with a V10 gas. Those are on top of the several antique Mack Trucks I have also.

Yup but I don't know how to post photos here. I'm a bit computer illiterate and don't participate in other forms of social media.

[revks]

In 2006 I joined the local volunteer fire department. At the meeting to vote me in as a member they voted me in as their chaplain because I am the local United Methodist Pastor. Then when I gave them a funny look they asked if I wanted to fight fires also. My reply was I thought that was what I was joining for so they accepted me as both chaplain and fellow firefighter. Of course that meant I earned the nick name Rev.

The KS is simple those are my initials.

So revks became my online.

[5 Buck Kanuck]

In 1967 I joined the Canadian Army, since I was born in England I could serve only in Canada. I found out that if I became a Canadian citizen I could go over to Germany, so I went ahead and signed all the papers. When I went to pay they said since you are in the Canadian Armed Forces it would cost me 5;00$. So I am a Five Dollar Canadian. So I became a 5Buck Kanuck. Its also my CB handle when I was driving transport trucks.

[videoarizona]

After reading all these great responses, I feel that my name is boring!

40 plus years in film, video and radio.... Living in Arizona..... Tried for "videoAz" as a web site many moons ago, but it was taken.... Hence videoarizona.

Remember, It's a dry heat....

[Air Ready Auto]

While in the Navy I was honored to work on the Phalanx Close In Weapons System. (Real FC type stuff.) In basic terms, Air Ready Auto is the setting you select on the weapons system when s*** hits the fan and you need to defend the ship no matter what. I am the oldest of 18 (11 brothers and 6 sisters) and I'm rather big -6'4" 240lb-. I come from a kind of broken family and I took the protection of my younger siblings very seriously... still do. My baby sister turned 18 a few months ago. She has this mid 20's guy sniffing around her. At her (high school) graduation party, I gave him a little box and told him to open it. He did and pulled out a bullet. I had him sign it, showed him my sniper qualification, took the bullet back and gently (kind of) explained to him that the next time he would see that bullet would be in the ER as the doctors removed it from his you-know-where. My sister rolled her eyes at me and said "Your just ready for anything". She has no idea what tactics I have planned for any little scum who ever gets near one of my daughters.

[Trader]

I used to own a barter exchange franchise and one of the main functions was to help members trade goods and services with other members.

 

hence. "Trader"

 

At work I was also known as "Thumper" because of being one of Jehovah's Witnesses...but that was taken

[dogman]

Dogman. I have been blessed and highly favoured being a K9 Officer for 24 years. I would show up at a scene, and other Officers would say the dogman is here, or K9guy is here. When I bought my Venture, friends said I should get a personalized licence plate for the bike since I had done K9 work for so long I tried to get K9guy, but that was taken so checked on Dogman and it was available. I then found the Venture site by fluke (as I'm not a computer guy) when attempting to do some research on my bike. So I thought to keep with the theme I would use Dogman, but not being a computer guy I forgot to capitalize the D, so it is dogman.

[Marcarl]

I should have done a google search before I chose my avatar, but google wasn't available back then.

I was dating a girl named Marca back when I was 18 or so, I dated lots of then opposite sex types and enjoyed them all I think, but this one became something special. While sitting at lunch one day, all by myself and being bored I wrote her name on the leg of my jeans, and then just naturally added rl.

Now I realize that her name came first and then mine, but it didn't matter none, we matched, we married (her fault) and we had kids (her fault as well)but I had some input) and we are still living in the same house, sleep in the same bed and go places together.

It was a match, and still is. So MarCarl has stuck!

Known her for 48 years, married 46 years.

[KIC]

Hey Cow Puc. How did Tippy get her name?

 

I heard it had to do with a bike and a bottle of wine.... but that is only a rumor I just started...

[StarFan]

A fan of the Royal Stars !

[BG Hawks]

Live in Iowa and of course the Hawkeyes=Hawks. Colors are Black and Gold =BG, thus BG Hawks.

[dbikers]

​mine is easy...i rode dirtbikes as kid. I'd gone through several streetbikes as a young adult but pretty much got rid of everything 20 years ago.

When we had our first kid he begged for a dirtbike (a boy after my own heart). I told him when he could ride a pedal bike without training wheels id get him one. 3 days later ( and 3 days befor his 4th bday) i had to get him a dirtbike (xr50). Before age 5 he was racing on an rm65. Then i got another dirtbike and thats pretty well my passion until he left for college. His sister followed with her first xt50 at age 5. We were the family of dbikersat the track and hare scramble courses.

Well, the kids have outgrown it but actually is still a passion of mine (with 3 freshly broken ribs to prove it).

If i added up all of my dirt and street injuries over ther years i'd likely give it all up for shuffleboard, but im not that smart

[Ay_Dee]

I'm lame - my usual nickname is Bundu Basher ... which is for off road riding. Seeing as I ride an RSV now, I chose Ay_Dee - my Ebay name ... and initials ... but you can call me Alan

[Stache]

On my second tour in Afghanistan I worked for a man who had a thoroughly impressive handlebar moustache. After seeing it every day for months I got the thought "I could do that". After I got home my son talked me into doing the beginner bike course with him. At one point during the training one of the instructors came out with "Hey Stache! Try that again. Of course my son heard it, told family and friends. Some adopted it. I think I'm stuck with it now.

[Flyinfool]

Mine is a bit obvious.

I like to play with anything that will fly.

I started with model airplanes 50 years ago and never stopped. I even managed to get my private pilots license to be able to fly full size airplanes even with passengers.
