Roger, thanks for the information and invite! Some of you know me as the Posterboy picture on the MotoGuzzi Quota that Roger took of me back in 2001! After having a great breakfast with Roger this morning I'm having thoughts of returning to backroads due to the increased safety of riding the backroads compared to streetriding and highway riding. Waay too many motorcycle deaths and wrecks in this area of Kansas! I'm too paranoid about riding the asphalt anymore, I'd rather ride a dirt road than a paved one anyday! So I'm gonna probably sell my 2K Suzuki Intruder 1500 and get something a bit lighter and dust-worthy!
