    Default Just want to say Hi.

    Not sure if this is the right place to do this.
    My very first post on this forum, so forgive my learning-curve.

    Just want to introduce myself, as I'm sure I'll have all sorts of noob questions for the pros and veterans.

    I am Dave (SuperDave_GPS) from Ontario, Canada.
    I finally no longer have to give the freakin ex any more of my money, so I decided to treat myself by buying a house and have a spankin' new red Spyder RT Limited parked in the driveway.
    I get both the house and the Spyder in about 2 weeks.
    Can't wait.
    Should be able to put a few good klicks on it before the snow hits.

    Cheers
    Dave

    Hi Bill.
    Yes, you are quite close to me.
    I have some friends in Brockville, so I go there semi-regularly in my Honda Fit, usually as a pass-through on my way to Ottawa, but now I tend to take Hwy 15 to Carleton Place then to Ottawa as it's a more mellow drive and no transport trucks.

    I actually haven't owned my own bike for over 3 decades now, and have always said that I want to get back on one since some guy decided to almost kill me while I was driving my Yamaha Seca in Ottawa at that time.
    My fiancée (being from Ireland) is not keen at all on 2-wheeled motorcycles, but doesn't have a problem with 3-wheeled ones, so I got her blessing.
    Gotta keep the missus happy.

    I pick up my new red 2016 Spyder RT Limited from the Ottawa Goodtime Centre in Ottawa in mid-October, and I hope to do at least one trip up Gatineau Park to the lookout points before it gets too cold for the ride.

    My brother may possibly join in on his Victory, but the more the merrier, so feel free to message me for contact info if you wish to tag along.

    Cheers
    Dave

    Took a drive to Ottawa, Ontario, yesterday to get my "familiarization walk around" on my new RT Limited.
    Can't wait to have this in my driveway next week.
    Hopefully the weather will stay warm for a while so I can put some clicks on it before having to put it to bed for the winter.

    Also met Ex-Winger and Mrs Winger there in person for the first time.
    Great to meet the both of you. Nice conversation.
