Hey Everyone! New to the forum. Currently living in Colorado Springs, CO originally from Michigan. Just picked up my 09 900 Custom this week. I have owned 2 Ninja Sport bikes prior. I love Kawi, and am looking forward to my new venture into the cruiser world. Just want to make it clear that even though I am a previous sport biker I never was a squid or irresponsible rider. Look forward to chatting with all, and finding fellow riders in my area, know there has to be some because there is great areas to ride in the front range!

Re: New Member Stationed in Colorado Spings
Welcome aboard Scotty, you'll love that 900C on the mountain roads in the Springs area. We lived for about 5 years a bit NE of CS, in the Black Forest area, 1500' higher than CS.
Except for the CS traffic, it's a great place to live. Is the old saying, "Pray for me, I drive Academy", still being used?
Enjoy the bike and the forum. If you're heading back to MI when/if you get out of the military, there's a chapter forming there right now.

Re: New Member Stationed in Colorado Spings
WELCOME SCOTTY, I live just south of Pueblo, CO., We are going to be heading up to the RED RIVER NM. Rally May 27th, 28th and 29th, If you happen to be able to get free and want to hook up for the ride let me know. You would need to make some room reservations, I had to get a room in Raton, NM. due to no rooms at Red river. Again welcome to the VRA Forum, I guarantee you are going to enjoy it. P.S. If you are into Tat's, look up my daughter (Shanna Keyes) at PENS AND NEEDLES TATTOO COMPANY in Colorado Springs.

Re: New Member Stationed in Colorado Spings
Welcome Scotty, Your right about the drivers. They're from every state with a different driving style all put together in one small town. You've got great roads to ride. Don't miss Manitou springs in the foothills."As I lay rubber down the street, I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide, please dear God protect my ride"
I SPEND MONEY I DON'T HAVE, TO BUILD BIKES I DON'T NEED,TO IMPRESS PEOPLE I DON'T KNOW.
