I’ve noticed a couple other regions with member “check-in” threads and thought it might be a good idea for us Florida riders too. I don’t think everyone is on the member map, and I’m pretty sure there are some Florida members on the map that backed out of the PDP. New or potential Florida-based members may be interested in who’s local. Perhaps you might need to contact a member close by for something or maybe we’ll get together for some rides or a rally one of these days. It would probably be helpful to have a list.

So how about a check in list and I’ll update it from time to time? I’ve been keeping track and here’s who I have as members so far.

Bill missed you at the track, I was planning on going but Bob wanted to ride to Horseshoe beach event, so after 450 miles we rode it back home. I want to go to the ride event in Feb. Thanks for the list.

Thanks.

Are you going to the XROG East Coast Meet next May in Waynesville, NC? I don't have my XR anymore, but I'm still going. :)

We had a great time at the races. It was the first time my son went on an overnight trip with me. Then we rode all day Sunday.

The FGT in February lost its lead guy to a new job. Another guy who rides a V4 Magna has taken over, so I’m hoping he keeps it on track.

I was down at Barney's in Brandon yesterday looking at a used V-Strom they just got in as a possible bike for my son. Anyway, turns out it was a trade on a Super Tenere. So we've got another Florida Tenere around here someplace. Hopefully, she'll show up here soon.

Welcome on, risk from Florida. What color is you bike? How do you like it? We have to know these things. Welcome to the Forum. You might want to post under "member intros" so more members will find you. ::004:: R. ::022::

Welcome, Rick. Polk County can be a fun place to ride with all of those mine roads. I'm over in Pinellas. Hope to share a ride with you sometime.

Hey Rick! Congratulations on the bike and welcome to the forum! ::012::

Where'd you pick it up? Do you have any big plans for big blue?
