All I can say is yeah baby! If anyone is interested in going on these rides and the many more I have tucked away from my 20 yrs of road warrioring, I would welcome the riding partners. I have a 98 Buell S3T, love to "knee drag", but appreciate my low insurance costs and intend to keep them that way! Hope this helps the New England riders or those of you who want to come this way.
