Hello from Northern Alberta, Canada
« on: February 16, 2020, 14:28:32 »
I say hello to all Adventure Bike Riders all over the World.


After a 13 year break i bought a 2008 Varadero XL 1000 2 years ago and drove it around 5500 km to the USA in Summer.

And I can only say it's a dream to drive it.

I live good 100 km east of the Alaska High Way to the Startpoint zero in Dawson Creek, BC.

This year in summer I want to ride to San Francisco with my daughter and her Honda CB500X in to the States and I think I will meet many new and nice riders again.

@ varawaldi and @ geosidecar

Both a warm welcome to that great community.
Regarding our language we use here, in the past only one vote in addition and the "worlds language" would be German as the legende is telling us VCIF_a_008.
