    I am currently bikeless but I will have one soon! This month.

    I live in Colts Neck NJ, 07722. I want to go on adventure rides. How far are you from here.

    I have two friends up here with bikes that go riding almost every weekend with others.

    I got all my gear out and cleaned it up last night haha, havent touched that stuff in a year and a half, I'm so stoked.

    I got the 2012 KTM 350 EXC-F. It was hard to decide between the 350 and 500 but I think I made the right choice.

    Yea man!! Lets ride next weekend! My sister lives in Brick so I we can meet half way.

    Hell yea that looks great I am in, but when and where are they meeting? It looks like there was an event this past weekend but is there one every weekend?

    I put 50 miles on my bike on Sunday, it was great! Some street riding and jumping off road into trails in my town where ever I could find. That was great!

    I just signed up for the AMA membership, it was $45 for the year. Ever event that I have been looking at says AMA membership required so I think its a good idea.

    Nice! Belmar is 15 min from me, I am down that way every weekend in the summer, this year on my bike! :freaky

    Hey, fresh meat on ADVR

    I live about 20-30 minutes north of you... just started poking around here on ADVrider to see some gear set ups- I'm done with my current system and I'm ready to upgrade!

    will try to keep up on what's going on here so find new folks to ride with even though there is absolutely NOTHING worth riding in these parts LOL- maybe we can make the long trek up there together.

    I did a 200 mile trip up North Jersey NEPA about two weeks ago- it was okay- just so hard to get out of all the flat and boring of south jersey LOL.

    OK so I just checked with my wife and she has a big horse show May 5th, sorry guys. Can we do it Sunday May 6th instead?

    I have a pretty good place we can meet up here to do some trail riding, we call it Crystal Lake. I'll get an address.

    I am trying to corner work the ccs race the first weekend in may. So I am not thinking I would make that anyway. Possibly the weekend after? Maybe Sunday would work.... Need to double check.

    Oh. Side note. I am not a die hard advrider lol I am pretty much a poweder puff street go-er on my SV. I tend to be the track type rather than the dirt type... But I am game.for rambling go nowhere up north/east rides. :1drink

    I am game for meeting up for drinks at a local watering hole too on slow nights.
