Howdy, Ya'll from Baltimore and Cottage Grove

[otb]

Just want to say Hi.....a relocated Minnasotan (left in 1982) who lives in Baltimore but lately commuting to the TC's on weekends due to Mom's health issues starting back in April.  Bought an old RF900 Suzuki here to decompress on, and GuzziJohn's been sharing routes with me on another board. Thought I'd stop over here, as the company is a bit more to my taste.

Been riding since '72, first street two-strokes and later inline four UJM's. Discovered Euro Vtwins about 15 years ago and got well and truly hooked.

Currently have wayyyy too many bikes, including a couple of older Bimotas (SB6R and DB4) a couple old crocks, an 1125R and some projects, as well as the RF900 here in Cottage Grove.

I like distance riding on back roads in the mountains of West Virginia, PA and Maryland when I get the time, but this year, just about the only riding I've gotten in has been here down around the Lake Pepin area, and that's only been early mornings as the rest of my days are very full....or back in MAryland playing catchup.

Look forward to meeting some of the folks here.

Welcome! I've always wanted an SB6R.  The best roads are mostly southeast of the Twin Cities so I can see why you ride toward Pepin. Hook up with Guzzi John on one of his "hill Country" rides.

Thanks. I'd like to hook up on one of his rides, but our schedules don't mesh.
Ill settle for a short ride and a cup of coffee, as he's been quite helpful.

The Sb is a smooth, fast bullet,  but the ultra light Db4 is more fun to ride fast and far.

Welcome!  Lake Pepin is a beautiful area to ride.  Best of luck with your Mom.

I didn't think that was possible
