Lurker w/ R50 in GR and F56 in NYC

As the title states, I have an R50 in Greece and an F56 MCS in NYC.
The R50 is a 5-speed 2002 Canadian launch edition with around 52K Miles that came to NY, then shipped off to Greece.
The F56 is a 6-speed 2014 with about 29k miles. This is my Daily Driver in NYC. Love it.

Other cars include:
1973 Triumph Spitfire 1500 66K miles
1991 Audi Coupe Quattro 550K miles(Not an error)
2003 Porsche Boxster 102k miles
70's Peugeot 504 ~25k KM

Looking forward to participating more. This community has been a great resource and I hope to give back some.

Thanks for the welcome, guys.
After 9 trouble-free years, you'll have to pry the Boxster from my cold dead hands :P
The Audi has been in the family since new and been well loved.
Here's the F56 in its natural city habitat and an s1000RR I share with a buddy.
Is there a thread for photos of dogs as co-pilots? mine is always traveling with me.

Pelican, I've been buying parts from you for many years and couldn't ask for more. Thank you for the great service over the years!

haha how did you get your F56 out of that parking spot! Too funny. Great to hear! Glad we have been helpful to you and your vehicles over the years. If you ever need anything at all please don't hesitate to shoot me a PM on here. Digging the s1000RR. I have an Aprilia RSV4 in the garage, but just sold it for a pretty crazy built up R1. Sad to see the V4 go. I don't believe there is a thread for dog co-pilots, but you should definitely start one. There are a lot of members on here that drive with their dogs regularly.

I parked in that spot and left from it the next morning. I find spots that size fairly often.
Hope you're enjoying the R1! Great bikes, stay safe out there.

I'll make that thead soon. I have some good pics to start it off.

Where would the best place be to start a "dogs as co-pilots" thread?
Thanks

F56

How about the General MINI Talk area? Every time someone posts it will get bumped up the list so should stay on the first or second page as long as there are contributors.
