Title: South East MN Newbie
Post by: smokechaser on June 08, 2012, 10:51:25 AM
[img]Hello!

I truly am a newbie, first bike purchased this spring...  But, the bug has bitten hard!  I have ridden about 3000 miles this spring already, bought my wife a bike and my oldest son a scooter.  I am enjoying learning more about riding techniques and styles, and I look forward to getting on some group rides.

I live in Pine Island (20 miles North of Rochester) look me up for a ride if you are in the area!

Greg
GSX-R 750

Welcome! Watch the "Rides" subforum to see when and where people are
riding. There just happens to be a ride this Sunday through Winona and
Houston Counties. Hook up with us for a mile or a hundred miles. These
rides are very flexible.

That sounds like a great ride! Unfortunately it is Cheese Fest weekend in Pine Island.  Fire Department responsibilities all day...

Hi Greg,
welcome to the site!  I'm from Byron, and do alot of local rides as well as SE/MN and WISC.  If you and your wife ever want to meet up for a local ride, I can give you a tour of some of the better roads in the area.

Thanks for the welcome.  I look forward to meeting some of you in person.  Next time you are down this way visiting, let me know and we can hook up for a ride.
