Hello from Phoenix

Hello BMW MOA my name is Nash and I am 19 years old and new to the community! I have been too several events around my area where people tell me how the younger generation is not into BMW, well not for me! My BMW is a 1992 R100RS, thats another comment I get, "why are you riding this? Shouldn't you be on a Japanese speed demon?". BMW motorcycles and aviation is a huge part of my family, its huge on my dads side, he rides a 1996 k1100rs which I was riding for a while before I got my bike, and I have a few other family members that are also super into BMW that are also apart of the MOA, (quick shout out to them if they see this). I got the bike from my uncle so we could keep it in the family tree (and also because I loved the looks and the ride of course) and I rode it down all the way from Washington back home in Phoenix, it was by far the most incredible and independent experience I have ever had in my 19 years of existence. Ever since then I have been at large in the riding scene, trying to ride whenever I can while keeping college my main priority. Anyways, I was hoping to get some guidance on maybe getting my story out, I wanted to see if I can get it in the magazine or if thats not possible just getting it out to try and get a younger crowd in here, thank you!!
