Just introducing myself....

[johnniekombat]

Hey DSBC Mid Island Members,

I just wanted to introduce myself. I just bought a house in Nanaimo, and figured I would need a KLR, so I just bought my first KLR 650 ( I used to ride a 98 and an 01 Honda CBR 600).

I am moving to Nanaimo from White Rock, and will be looking for :

1. Riding Buddies

2. A Job

3. People that are good at renovations for the fixer upper I bought

Anyway, thats about all there is to say at this time. I look forward to chatting with everyone.

Is this a fairly active message board for Mid-Islanders?

What kind of work are you looking for???

I am looking for a welder/ fabricator. Knowledge of shear and break work would be an asset.

We manufacture parts washers

Nice equipment. I've usedasimilarparts washerfor years in our auto repair/transmission shop. Does a great job on aluminum cases using only hot water and biodegradable soap. We call it the 'Cooker'.

Welcome to the site and Nanaimo. This time of year there is usually a least one ride going each week. Just watch the forum and come out and join a ride:tup:. We also meet at Starbucks in the Chapters building (North end of Nanaimo) on Thursday nights at 7:30 for a BS. Come out and introduce yourself

I won't be able to be a tomorrow's meeting, however I do know renovators ,since having been in the industry as a sales rep. I will be at next weeks meetingor you can pm me if need be for a couple names.

Hope to meet you soon.

Hey guys, thanks for all the introductions.

I have not moved over just yet, as I take possession of my downtown nanaimo home June 1.

C33jb, I appreciate the consideration, however I am not a welder or a fabricator. I am a marketing manager/strength & conditioning specialist/ event promoter. Hopefully something comes up.

Halo, I am still win WR and will keep you in mind for a RIP while I am still here. WR is a nice area but housing prices and the lack of any real recrational opportunities has sealed the deal for me to make the hop across the pond.

VI mike. Its a bit premature for me to be contacting renovators etc. but I appreciate the leads a lot. I will contact you when I figure out a plan.

I am SO stoked about exploring the island, its not even funny.!

Here is a pic of my KLR:
