New Member-New BMW

[michael_arpin]

I just wanted to introduce myself. I’m Michael, and I’m from West Hartford, Connecticut.
I’ve joined the BMWMOA because I have just purchased my first BMW motorcycle. An R1250RS. I hope to learn and to contribute what I can to everyone. And I hope that I will meet many of you at gatherings or on the road.
Be well.

Hallo Michael in Connecticut from down in the Tennessee River valley!

I guess you’re ready for some sophisticated sport touring now that you’re graduated to the RS stable. Me and the Mrs do some of the maintenance on our BMWs (2 each). You’ll need to get some Long-Distance Rides in soon in order to build up your X-country stamina...

You’ve got this closer-2-you opportunity next month: << https://bmwra.org/rally23/ >>

Then there’s the Biggly BMW Motorrad sponsored Oktoberfest in early Oct: >> https://www.barbermuseum.org/barber-vintage-festival/ <<

And for those that have already drunk the Kool-Aid, the MOA’s 51st National Rally: << https://rally.bmwmoa.org >>

Let’s hope you’ll be Ready-4-Redmond! We’ll be there volunteering and camping out with a few thousand freunds.

Happy Trails whenever U can - Ciao!
