Frank M 1 Posted October 11, 2019 Hi All, I just joined the forum and wanted to introduce myself. I ride a 2018 KTM 690 Enduro and live in Chula Vista. I’ve owned a few dual sports in my life (DRZ400E, BMW GS650, BMW1200GS), and have ridden bikes most of my life. I’m 55 and, at this stage of my life, am mostly interested in non life-threatening trails, though mellow single track is always a blast, motorcycle camping, beautiful scenery, cold beer, and the camaraderie of fellow explorers. I spend some time on Otay Mountain and have been into Baja a few times. I always welcome the insight of experienced riders on technique and bike set up (I fear I am a perpetual beginner, despite 40 years of riding), and love sharing tips and upgrades Additionally, I enjoy Mountain Biking, hiking, and 4x4 exploration. I look forward to meeting some of you soon! cheers, Frank Motley 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
