EffBee Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Welcome, Stevo. My favorite roads are in Colorado. Going to retire there soon, but over on the western slope (Montrose). You're a lucky guy to be able to ride those tall-treed serpentine paths on a regular basis. You're going to love the RT. It's got more vibration than your K, but it also has a lot more character. I rode mine for 100K, then sold it. Tried an FJR, then a V-strom. Both nice bikes. But I ended up back with an 1100RT (real men don't need a 6th gear). Check out the ride calendar. Torrey, UT, is coming up in May. I think it's Torrey XIX. Shouldn't be more than a 6-7-hour ride from the Denver burbs. You'll make at least 30 new friends, I promise (oh, and noobs buy the beer, such as it is --- hey, it's Utah). Link to comment

BeemerLover Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Welcome! I grew up in Boulder and return to Colorado often to visit relatives and ride. Wonderful country, great riding if you can stay out of the traffic jams on I-70 in the mountains! Link to comment

awagnon Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Welcome to the group, Stevo. Enjoy your new bike. There are a number of nice rallies in Colorado. However, you might consider our Utah club's Red Rocks Rendezvous, June 17-20. We get lots of riders from Colorado, and about 300 riders total, so it's a smaller rally. Lots of great rides in southern Utah including Torrey, Zion NP, Bryce Canyon NP, N. rim of the Grand Canyon, and a number of national monuments. We'd love to have you come. Link to comment

VinnyR11 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Welcome! No shortage of riding choices out by you. I also had a '96 R1100RT bought new that I absolutely loved. 14 great years. Just traded it in at the end of last season for my R1200RT. Best looking RT IMO. Link to comment
Bullett Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Ooooh, you got the pretty RT! Welcome to the board, Stevo Link to comment
