Hello!

Long time rider, first time caller. My first true road bike was back in 89, an 86 Honda 650 Nighthawk (loved that bike). Took a several decade hiatus. Started riding again on a Victory Cross Country Tour, rapidly realized that was a mistake. Bought a Kawasaki Versys 1000 to get re-acquainted with riding on. Rode the hell out of it for about six months before selling it and the Victory and bought a 2018 Triumph Tiger XRt (great bike). But a GS was always the dream, so in March of 22 I picked up my brand new, 0 mile Rallye GS Adventure and the test drive was the ride home of about sixty miles. I am absolutely in love with this bike, and it's great to be part of the Motorrad community!

Get ready. The Breakfast Club Rally folks, a car organization, are running a big rally out in your neck of the woods, starting in Fairfax, then to St. Helena and then to Calistoga in a couple weeks. If you like cars, watch for them. They get all kinds of cool stuff. They'll be rolling out of Fairfax at like 9am, but haven't announced the start point yet.
 
Greetings from ND, where it's still freaking winter. With another CO low coming in next week. :wave

Seriously, glad to have you here. You picked a great bike to begin your Motorrad adventure on.
 
Welcome tinygsa! Glad you achieved/acquired your dream. My dream is to see a pic of your bike...please help me achieve my dream.
