eisen Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Hi. This is my first post, so i'll introduce myself: My name is Ellie, 30yrs old, live, work and ride! in Tel Aviv, Israel. I currently ride a R1200RT and a K1200R My addiction to both bikes is totally uncurable and thanks to the weather over here i get to enjoy them year round. Although the two bikes are worlds apart, they compliment and balance each other perfectly. I find the posts here helpful & insightful. The forum has helped me choose many accessories for my RT, all of which have made my bike that little bit better... So a big thanks to all the members out there and i'm proud to become a member of your forum. Ellie. Link to comment

LuckyLeif Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Welcome to the site! Have you done much riding ourside of Israel? Also, what is the motorcycle community like in Israel? Clubs, dealers, etc. Link to comment
eisen Posted August 28, 2007 Author Share Posted August 28, 2007 I have been riding for a number of years, but unfortunately i don't ride outside the country much. The roads here are fantastic - but the drivers are a bit, well, mad! Although its only a small country, we have breathtaking desert views down south and absolutely stunning green countryside up north. My girlfriend and I take regular trips - any excuse to get on the bike... The BMW community is small, tiny even. There is only one dealer - but they are a fantastic group of people. Give me a day or two and i'll post some pics Link to comment
kcscout Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Shalom. Although it's been too long, Israel has been a frequent destination for me. It's beautiful. It's probably one of the few countries where you can go on a daytrip and touch all four borders. Link to comment
eisen Posted August 28, 2007 Author Share Posted August 28, 2007 With my head hung looow , i admit i have never done all the country in one day/ride. However, it is #1 on my list as soon as my 'day-long' saddle arrives. Link to comment
TEWKS Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Welcome Ellie, glad to hear its not just large American buttocks that BMW can't build seats for. Pat Link to comment
