It's been a while but I wanted to check in and say hello again.
I've needed some time to get life back on track and it looks like things are finally headed in the right direction.
I see things haven't changed much here but quite a few "new" names that I don't recognize, although they all have a large number of posts to their names.
Hope all is well with everyone and I'll try not to be such a stranger here anymore.

Hey there, stranger! Well, you're actually no stranger than the rest of us...
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Yeah my ears were burning about a month ago around the time of the rally. I've thought about it every year that I wasn't there.
Yes I'm still riding although we sold the America two months ago and got ourselves a Trophy SE.

My wife and I were at Ft. Malden a while back and I mentioned there was someone from Amherstburg on this site but had not seen his name in a while. Welcome back.

We moved out of Amherstburg a couple of years ago but not too far. Back to Windsor.
I see Joe you're from Ottawa, funny that's where I got the Trophy from.

Hey Lee, been a long time and yes I do remember you as well as the beautiful mountains I followed you and Pat through the one year.
My mileage is no where close to Bill's (the other Canadian who's been to Georgia).

I love it. I'm still getting used to the ride since it feels different than the America but my first day out with it both my wife and I were able to do closed to 800 kms (500 miles) without being sore until the end of the ride. Changing the seat to a Corbin has solved that.
We've started planning our first trip on it, something she just couldn't do on the America.
