Hello all!

Stumbled across this site the other day and thought I had to check it out. Been riding about 8 years now, mostly with my dad or on my own. I’ve been on a few larger group rides before, but it seems like they mostly made up of squids. Thought I would check out this forum and see if I can meet some guys that actually like to ride. I like to ride the twisty roads within an hour of the cities, take a weekend trip to southern Wisconsin and been out to Colorado and down to Arkansas. My current bike is a 2010 Vfr 1200. I am in the se metro and would love to see who else is around.

Thanks!

Hello.
A few of us are from the SE metro. I for one.
Starting places are usually Prescott or Hasting. Or South like Nelson or Wabasha.
Give me a call I go out most every weekend on short rides of 200-300 mile rides.

Welcome! What's your real name?  :)
Great seeing a fellow Honda rider. Watch for a couple group rides in September.
We focus on individual responsibility as well as "Pace" riding, with the occasional bust of "measured holiganism"

These people have taught me more about riding than any day spent on a track: Larry B, Tony K, Vince J, Mr. Wonderful, V2Neal, Marty F, Kevin B, Devon W, Ehrich, Mike A, John L, Arnell, Kirk, Ray C

Track days are like climbing the rock wall at REI.
Perhaps I need to stop taking the high road.

Hey Greg, my name is Paul. And I’ll definitely keep my eyes open. Where would I look to find group rides coming up?

Thanks

Hi Paul. Watch for them in the "Rides / Get Togethers" forum.
