New Guy from Bailey CO
« on: May 22, 2017, 06:16:59 PM »
Just joined the group after moving back to Colorado after many long years in southern California.  The wife and I ride a lot, but not near as much as we'd like.  Trying to get used to not getting on our bikes whenever we want.  The ice and gravel can be a challenge.
We both ride Gold Wings.  These are number three and four.  I traded my 2005 in on a 2012 after putting over 75,000 miles on it in five years.  Not getting near as much use out of this one.
I belonged to GWRRA, but they weren't as friendly as I had hoped.  Looks like MSTA is different.  Looking forward to meeting some of members and hitting the road.

Welcome!  I certainly hope that you will find MSTA people friendly and to your liking.  I also hope that we will see you in a few weeks at STAR in Colorado Springs.

I think you may have spoken to my wife the other day. -JEP-

I see you've got one of those steroid laced sport bikes there. Other than full-on dirt, those GLs will go most anywhere at whatever speed you want.
