Welcome Craig. So what gave you the idea to start riding?
Ask in the North East section, a number of guys are from that area. Plus I remember that when we were exploring options for the East Coast Ride (which still hasn't happened), we found a couple places that would rent bikes.Some old friends want to plan a reunion next summer in PA and I suggested we do this. I'd like to buy a bike, but we all need to rent, so looking for something like that and having no luck with the goggle. Read through your stuff and thought you folks sounded like the experts!
That's all it took for me some years ago. Rode a buddy's yz125 and was hooked from then on.I got on a friends' 1980-something Honda CBR and we rode a couple of trails around his farm. Nothing exciting--no racing--just a leisurely ride for about 20 minutes. That was enough to get me interested, thinking about it all the time.
Hey, are you not neighbors with Mr. Buck Run?
Now there is a guy that has bikes, guns, and loves his booze. We have some things in common.
Welcome a broad!
