New KLR rider from Chula Vista!

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I've been riding since I was 15. After several years of not owning a bike I got back into it in 2000 with a 1100 Shadow, then a Valkyrie, and then a ST-1300.

Started reading about dual sport and adventure riders and got hooked on the idea, so I got a 2009 KLR650.

I took it to an ST-Owners event last weekend at the Salton Sea. A couple of other riders brought their dual-sports so we went for a ride down the Bradshaw trail, 60mi off road for the first time in 30+ years. The odometer turned to 300mi on the KLR during that ride.

I have a lot to learn about dirt riding and hope you guys can help me out.

Let's Ride, John

I'm also new to SDAR but the 3 rides I've been on have been with good, helpful people.

Welcome! :ph34r:

Thanks for all the welcomes!

Yes, I'd like to go on a "Ladies" ride. I'm sure they can all teach me a thing or two:) Like how not to bury you bike on your 1st outing.

John
