Back on the forum after a four year hiatus. My friends call me 1TRAK as I spend the better part of 12000 miles each year riding on and off road. I enjoy riding THE PACE, road trips, bike camping and dual sport riding/ camping. I'm up for a ride anytime and look forward to meeting and riding with some of you soon. Only eight weeks till spring!  Thumbsuphttp://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx304/1trakk/258.jpghttp://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx304/1trakk/195.jpg

Or you can ride now. There are many great people in Region 4. See you riding or at a future lunch gathering.  Just look for the c-14 with the front tire barley on the pavement.

Welcome and stay tuned.  We need to repeat our 1st Annual Michigan campout this summer.  There are many lunch gatherings all year round.  Check out the photo tag game too.  It's a great way to pick a destination for the day.

I'd be out riding now, but I can't see the pavement!   Lol

Welcome!  South Haven?  Benton Harbor?  How far SW?  I'm just south of GR.  We had another active GR guy, but he just left us for awhile.

We'll hook up for lunch meets.  I have an STN BBQ at my place on June 11:

We'll have a couple lunch meets before that I would guess.  Bigok

I do get the Dizzer out in the snow occasionally but haven't  this year yet. See you when it warms up.http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx304/1trakk/DUAL%20SPORT/013.jpghttp://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx304/1trakk/FEB%2010%20SOUTHERN%20INDIANA/010.jpghttp://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx304/1trakk/1141.jpg

Thanks for the reply, I'll be looking for those lunches and day rides. Lots of great places to ride and camp in Mich, HY 22 along the west coast is one of my favorites.

Sounds good! I live near Allegan and do a lot of street and dirt riding around here and Yankee Springs. When the roads clear lets roost some dirt or chase some twisties, your choice.  Thumbsup

Cool- the XR's a pig, but works for either.  I love Yankee Springs- it's a great place to run with the Tracker.  I spent a day ripping around the Allegan State Game area this summer on the XR.  Mostly two-tracks, but fun!

Had a 93 and 01 XRL that were decent at anything short of tite singletrak, I put a lot of miles on those bikes! Noticed on the sled post some rear racks on the XRL, how do you like that bike for traveling? Looking forward to riding Allegan and Yankee Springs with you, I've ridden these areas 30 plus years and have some nice routes. See Ya! Thumbsup P.S.  That Tracker looks great, bet those megaphones sound sweet!

Hey, welcome back!

One word of advice though... If your a cat lover stay away from CLAY. Next to a Chinese restaurant, no one kills more cats than CLAY! Lol

If you value clean air, stay away from WIBORNZ, his farts are so stinky, his wife has to vacate the car when he lets one rip! Lol

Seriously though, great group in Region 4! Bigok

Thanks for the greeting and the heads up! CLAYS skills could be useful Yankee Springs way, lots of strays out there. WIBORNZ... We can be happy we're on two wheels and not four!  Bigok
