    Hi!! My name is Lissa. I just got a new bike after 3 years. It's a 2018 Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster. I'm from Sunny Florida, USA. It's nice to meet you!

    Welcome! I hear Florida can be a nightmare to ride in, with lots of tourists, foreigners, and elderly drivers, all with too many distractions to look at!!

    Good morning from a sunny South Africa. Been 10 years since I crashed my Suzuki SV650... I've purchased a 2013 Tiger Explorer with approx. 40000km on the clock. I was very impressed with the test ride. I'm picking the bike up on Sunday, which is about 100km away from where I live. I am looking forward to the ride home!

    Welcome, good choice of ride.

    I have been at last one of those, I met up with a few local buddies and rode around Daytona, Orlando and in and around the backcountry. As it was just after Spring Break Miami smelt of urine, and the roads reminded me of the Ukraine with all the pot holes, but they were nice and wide and everyone tootled along at a nice slow pace. The drivers as a rule were courteous and lane discipline was good. I have been in Florida during some really bad weather but on this occasion it was great throughout the week i was riding.
