Hello from Mike and Heidi of connecticut. this is the first time on this forum and from what I can see, It looks like I'll be talking with folks with the same interest. A little back ground, I've bee riding for 36 yrs. started out on a 1972 360 yamaha , then to a 550 suzuki, 1984 aspencade, 1989 goldwing, 2001 heritage softtail, 2003 ultra classic, and last year I found a 1994 se goldwing with only 3948 miles on it. those are original miles. anyway in sept of last year, I had a 2007 motor trike kit installed and heidi and I really enjoy it. Our plans are set for a week at Americade (staying @ lake george RV park and then 10 days between wing ding and the smokies of Tenn. If your ever in ct , and you belong to Gwrra, we're in the gold book.. gives a call and we'll have coffee. Sorry, I got a little side tracked. anyway.

Hey, glad to have you with us Chico! Some call me Bazooka, or zook. A couple of really brave dudes like to call me doughnut. Youre in good company here. Post some of your trike and bike picture in your garage for us to drool over.
 
Where in Connecticut are you? I just lost my best friend and Triking buddy 2 months ago,,,,He got his trike last May, a 2002 Goldwing yellow Champion. took me 4 years to get him to open his wallet and spring for it. I am glad he got to drive it and enjoy it for the few short months. He rode that TRIKE with a huge smile on his face. Hope to see u on the roads of Conn. We will be at Americade all week also. Look for this at Americade

Americade

Hi Mike and Heidi,
I hope to run into you at Americade. We are going up on the 4th for a few days. I hope to be riding a red 08GW with a Trike Shop conversion. Still waiting to pick it up. Bought the bike and placed the order for the kit in October. Good thing I was planning ahead. I hope to get a plate that matches my TRI-3 log in name. Post a pic of your trike and I'll keep a lookout.

Hi Steve and Kathy! Thanks for writing! See you're retired and thank you for your service!! We are looking forward to retirment too, but have a few years to go but we sure are EAGER!!
 
Back at ya!! I did retire in 97 from the military, but the Govt. made me a offer I could not refuse in 2000 so I am now working for the Govt. again. But that is ok, I was only 45 yrs old when I retired from the Coast Guard (after 28 yrs). We too camp on my time off and have a toyhauler so we can take the trike. U guys ride safe.
