Jared "O-H" Fortney

I've been hoping to join the LRLR since the earliest ride to Long Beach in 2004. The problem then was I was still in school and didn't ride motorcycles. Seven years later, after graduating from the University of Cincinnati and spending five years touring with various Cirque du Soleil shows, both problems have been eliminated. I started riding in 2010, in the Bronx of all places, while I was in New York with a Cirque tour. I got my New York motorcycle endorsement, found my bike, a 2002 BMW R1150R, in New Canaan and started riding. 5,000 miles and six tour stops later, I moved back to Ohio to catch my breath for a few months.

I'm happy to finally have the opportunity and the ability to join the LRLR and I'm looking forward to meeting all the riders, raising awareness and funding for Behind the Scenes and BC/EFA and visiting two new states in the process.
