Default Hello from Colorado Springs!
I am having a hard time finding any place to meet folks that ride. Most sites only have discussion forums specifically for a bike, not a location. I would like to be able to meet up with some folks that are in the Colorado Springs area.

Currently, my bike is in the shop (rear-ended by a Colorado State Parks truck) for repairs. I hope to have it back in a week.

I rode dirt bikes for years as a youngster, and have recently taken up a street bike. I enjoy riding and am looking to meet folks for an occasional ride.

Anyone out there??

Welcome to the forum Katz. I seem to recall other members in MJ live in your area. I'm sure they'll chime in sooner or later. Enjoy the site and ride safe.

Hi Katz, welcome.

I was looking to move to Colorado Springs back in the late 80s, but ended up moving a bit farther east ... (about 8 timezones farther east).

FYI ... I moved your thread to the "New Member Pitstop" so that more people will see it.

Thank you ALL for the welcome! The bike BETTER be like new when I get it back

If the parts all come in, I should get it back on Saturday. Anyone up for a ride on Sunday? It is suppose to be VERY nice out (so they say......)

My riding is just for a ride... not speed...
