Default Re: Brag - gona go on a month long motorcycle / poker road trip!

As long as I'm bragging, let me tell you a little about my bike.

Its a 07 BMW K 1200 GT Sport Touring dream machine. It goes from 0 to 170 mph in like 2.7 seconds. It rides so very very smooth, has cruise control, heated grips, ABS brakes, adjustable windshield, and much more. I have installed a GPS, XM radio, mp3 player, blue tooth cell phone and radar detector. There is no other motorcycle on the planet I'd rather own than this one. I've always driven junky used cars.. for once I have the ultimate riding machine.

Life is sweet.. BB

Ok thanks sounds good! Where do you suggest I play poker when I'm in the area? Any good places to camp nearby? Can I crash on your couch for a night? [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Ya San Fran is the only big city (besides Vegas) I wana drive thru on the trip. Last time I was in SF was 1989, not long after the earthquake, I remember seeing the collapsed freeway and all. This time while there I wana tour Alcatraz, hike around Angel Island, and see if Blues at Lou's is still around Fisherman's Wharf.

Should be fun.. take care.. Allen

I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma so drop me a line if you want. I don't know of any places for you to stay and I can only go to 1/3 casinos in town but I could probably be some help. PM me for contact info if you want.

Ok slight exaggeration [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] But its a very powerful, fast, smooth rocket roller coaster ride.. My prev bike was a Suzuki Intruder V-Twin chopper.. this BMW is a HUGE upgrade. But hey to each their own...

Take care.. BB

Howdy.. Sorry I don't really have much to suggest. I didn't get my first bike till last year at the age of 42, then quickly sold it and got the BMW. I'm still learning myself what all is out there. I know there are some great deals on used bikes, so take your time, find something that is comfortable to ride, and I strongly suggest always wearing all the safety gear (boots, pants, jacket, gloves & helmet) all the time. Good luck!
