A.K.A. what's the story behind choosing your handle?<div><br /></div><div>Mine dates back to Y2K when I got my first desktop with internet capabilities. Well, not my first desktop as that would have been my old 386 but rather my first foray onto the internet on a later model computer, if Windows ME can be considered "better" (rolling my eyes). </div><div><br /></div><div>Anyways it didn't take me long to find some motorcycle boards and after initially registering with my first name I caught on to the trend of catchy names being used so I drummed one up. The one I picked has stuck with me ever since. The first part stemmed from having three Honda Shadows in my garage. The second part hails from the garage itself, which at the time also had some carpet, sofa, DirecTV on a 27" tube with a dolby surround sound system, fridge, evaporative cooler and space heater...to say the least I used to spend a lot of time out there. I had referred to it as my "shack" (incidentally most of those comforts are gone now, having been replaced with yet more bikes and an accumulation of parts in one corner that I affectionately dubbed "the great heap" after a Star Wars: Droids cartoon).</div>
