RD Gold.....that's the hard part for me,I am the dealer and the books are at my finger tips all the time. I've been so busy and just came back from a cruise in the Carribean, so I haven't given the riding thing much thought. Yesterday the moisture in are garage floor was really bad and the bike is soaked. Made me sick, so I'm going to try and get it to the shop and get it cleaned up. maybe bewteen the guys up north and guys down sount we can get a ride together.With the new 355 it makes it alot easier to getup north for guys down here.

Hey guys, I'm in the SW Burbs. Homer Glen, IL.
Lookin for someone to ride with as well when the weather permits.
Have a friend who rides a bagger, However he is always so busy and we never seem to hook up. I'm fairly new rider but very resposibale. Not a knucklehead. Have a few riders in Twin lakes WI. just over the IL. Border. Head up there a fair amount.
Just a few more month till we can all get er out for a blast. Chompin at the bit over here.
Peace......

If you keep your eyes on this board this springyou see rides being planned...I think bigdoghd heads south most Sundays and maybe some other stuff too.The IL/WI Motley Bikers frequently hit all of Southern Wisconsin from Lake Michigan to the Missisippi River,out to Galena IL and towards Starved Rock

Skip's website www.chicagomotorcycleguide.com lists events as well as other local stuff you might want to know. Libertyville is right in the thick of things, always something to do. There's a place on 176 east of Lake/Shore HD that is one of many trying to replace the old Highland House and the Sat/Sun morning get-togethers. Lake/McHenry/Kenosha/Walworth counties always has something to do with your bike.

That's probably Fat Man Inn that you're referring to...big crowds gather there on Sundays. It's on Route 41 at the intersection of IL-21 (Milwaukee Ave). Another Sunday morning gathering spot for bikers is The Full Moon Restaurant...also on Route 41, just south of IL-137 (Buckley Rd) in North Chicago/Lake Bluff area.
