    Another new guy

    Hey, i'm sorta from VA but now I'm in GA. This is great forum and I have been reading posts for sometime and learning alot about hangin. Especially from Shug's videos. Thanks to all. I am really pumped about hanging. haven't done this since I was 17 now I am 56. Back then I use to hang my Dad's hammock on the porch down in Mobile and sleep through the night quite regularly until the fabric just wore out and ripped apart dumping me on the floor one morning. Never thought of camping this way until June of this year. Rode my Vulcan 900 along with a friend to bike week in Sandusky OH. My friend asked me if I ever heard of HH. From then on I began researching hangng and found this forum. Now I am waiting for my WBBB and superfly I ordered and man I am excited! My Name is Rod my ID rodcville is because I use to live in Charlottesville VA and now I plan on doing some extensive traveling on my Vulcan along with camping in my WBBB.

    Welcome!

    I spent some time in Mobile while at USA a while back. Good to have you onboard! Hammocking and biking are a great combination....

    Welcome to HF hammock camping and motorcycles go together quite well. You're definitely going to like hanging.

    Welcome!

    Yeah, there are lots of folks here who I would love to share a campfire with (and that is my highest level of praise).
