Next year might be one for the books though. I'm thinkin' about a western European tour.

Along with that, I'm also contemplating if I realllllllly want to go to Prudhoe Bay again. I'm thinking about it anyway. Now that I have Dalton experience, I want to go do it again now that I know what to expect. Yes, I'm a glutton for punishment.

I'm with you at about 11K between bikes.

I followed your Alaska trip, and can't believe you want to do it again. Same bike?

Cari, I'd be happy to put miles on your bike for you. Hell we should probably just plan a weekend where you ride it to my place and stay for the weekend riding around by my house.

Hell. No!

I sold that KLR back to the guy I bought it from exactly 8 days after I returned from Prudhoe Bay. I basically rented it for a year and put 10k on it.

This time, I'll do it on a bike that I feel is more suited to the task. I am *casually* shopping for a GS, but I'm not in any big hurry. It will have to be the super crazy Tracy deal I'm used to getting. I have other things on my plate right now and the GS isn't at the top of the list. Yet.

Only if you or Evan lets me ride one of those gorgeous Multistradas.

I kid... a little.

That actually sounds like a lot of fun, I know Jay is dying to get his SuperHawk out again, neither of us has done much riding this year.

Damn, by the sounds of it this forum should soon be called "used to get a two wheel fix"

We haven't had a huge influx of new riders in awhile.

Right?

I've considered selling the 1098 because I feel so guilty for never riding it. But then I think about the potential for it to end up in the hands of an idiot rider that will wad it within a month of owning it, and I decide it's better off safe and sound in my garage. I figure once my school commitment starts winding down, I'll have more free time to start riding on a regular basis again.

~5,000 miles on the 12R
~1,900 miles on the KLX. 50/50 on and off road. (Owned it for about 2.5 Months before going away for the Winter)
~600 Miles on the 250R (GF put another 2,500 or so on it)

Lol, seems like there would be better places to ride, of course my irrational hate of everything Alaska from living there blinds me of any value of the place. LoL
