Default Victorious So Cal rider

Hello everyone from sunny SoCal. Nothing like mid-80's in the winter! Stumbled across this site while looking for information on touring. Recently acquired my first touring/cruising bike (2012 Victory Cross Country Tour), and planning on taking a long range ride this spring. Before this bike, I probably never rode more than 150-200 miles in a day, and that about did me in. I can ride "forever and a day" on this rig.
Anyway, Howdy!!

Good luck.

And we've got a cruiser group in So Cal that you may be interested in.
Folks ride a bunch of cruisers ... Yamaha, Harley etc.
Their next ride is a Death Valley loop ride, which they are actually doing in a week or so. I won't be on that one, but I will be on other rides later. Other places incl. the Rock Store (near Malibu), Santa Barbara (Cold Spring Tavern), Idyllwld, Kernville, and stuff like that.
So send me a private message if interested.

You may want to build up your riding endurance - to where you feel comfortable with a few hundred miles in one day.

have fun!

I hear ya' distantThunder. I have already been trying to set myself up with some longer day rides, to just try and get used to putting in some more miles.

Hey distantThunder. I can't send PM's until I have 15 posts, but I might be interested in your cruiser group, and a Death Valley loop sounds great. Could you send me a PM with some more info?

Hey kmg

Sent you a fairly long PM with the details of the Death Valley ride.
Send me a reply, or check back here if you want to go.

best,
