New guy, hi

Introduce Yourself

Hi,
my name is brian, i currently live outside of chicago with my wife. We are in our early 30’s and have been a fan of moving to NH for a while. We recently agreed on a 5 year plan to get there. I am a heavy construction equipment technician, currently working at a big yellow machine dealership. I also have a side business growing and selling microgreens and vegetables to restaurants. I am trying to get skills together to run my own skid steer repair service in the future.

I am here because i heard about it on FTL. I am not on facebook so this sounded great. Also, i heard a caller whose is doing a cross country bike ride and wanted to reach out to him with my experiences. I rode from IL/WI/IA borders to New Orleans along the mississippi, 1300 miles camping along the way.

my wife and i are attending a wedding in vermont in early august and plan to drive around NH for a week to meet people, scout properties, get a feel for it, etc.

Welcome to the Shire forum, and thanks for taking an interest to moving to the “Live Free or Die” state. More bikers and campers - the Shire is the perfect place for both.

My partner, Darlene, has a background in construction, too. So we hope to meet you and your wife. We’re moving there this month ourselves.
