Welcome, Dave.
I never posted much on the other forums I was in either, until I came here.
I think you'll find this is a place where conversations occur in these forums much the same way a friendly talk might progress at the end of one of your snowmobile rides.
Get yourself in a rider course, to get the old skills back. And keep us posted on how you're doing with your bikes!

Hey Dave! Another guy from Lansing, MI, huh? Maybe we can cruise sometime, and you can teach me a thing or two about bikes.jus4plamichigan wrote:I have been away from bikes for 20+ years..I thought I would try it again.
