Travis Gill 0 Posted February 11, 2016 Howdy! My name is Travis and my better half is Chantil. We both ride a pair of BMW G650GSs with mine being a Sertao edition. We are fairly new to the Adventure motorcycle scene but are looking to gain as much experience over the next couple years so that we will have the confidence to motorcycle tour full time. Our initial plan is to ride the entire United States including Alaska before we head south into Mexico and beyond. In addition, we also have a couple Honda Ruckus scooters that we enjoy riding around Coronado and Imperial Beach. We've been living in San Diego off and on since 1992. It wasn't until we owned a Nissan Xterra in 2000 that we started to really enjoy the area around Southern California. We've explored a lot of Southern California on four wheels to include Corral Canyon, Anza Borrego, Joshua Tree, Death Valley, and Big Bear to name a few. I used to think that four wheels was the best way to enjoy the trails - boy was I wrong! Since discovering adventure motorcycling it feels like we're rediscovering all the trails in a whole new way. Anyhow, I'm looking forward to being part of a club with like-minded adventure folks. Me: The misses: Cheers, Travis & Chantil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daufcguy 0 Posted March 4, 2016 welcome, my lady just purchased a drz, Im thinking a couples ride is in the near future. Love the Ruckus, I was a scooter mechanic when I lived in chicago and owned a genuine buddy with a 170cc kit that would pull wheelies all day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love the Ruckus, I was a scooter mechanic when I lived in chicago and owned a genuine buddy with a 170cc kit that would pull wheelies all day! A DRZ sounds like a perfect bike; there are times when I need to help my lady with picking up the 650GS. I will always have a fond love of the Ruckus since it was the "gateway drug" that got us into the craziness of motorcycles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
