    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Ok, here's the first road trip on my GS850L, what an awesome ride! Went out from Chicago with two friends on Friday morning, stayed off interstates and went from Chicago to Lexington, Kentucky to Nashville, Tennessee and back up to Chicago. Beautiful weather sat and sun, got plenty of rain on friday though, oh well, it was still fun. Bike ran great and I was the road captain for these two big bikes, but they kept up just fine:-D. No problems just lots of fun, can't wait to go back out and do it again!

Thats brilliant!

Thats brilliant!

Looks like a great trip! I dream of something like that!!!
 
You guys make me jealous. I want to go on some of these big adventures with my friends, but im taking baby steps right now. Learning to ride my 450 right, then i will step up. That trip looked awesome, thanks for the pics.
 
I hope you like them, I did not want to bore you with all 230 pics, just some highlights. This is my first road trip on a GS and my first road trip in about twelve years!! You know how it is when the kids come along, mine are 8 and 7 now and it still kind of broke my heart to leave them but this was well worth it. These bikes have no problem riding in thr rain, cold, hot, whatever, and I had a 500 mile day with no problems! Great bike!
 
Man that looks like a lot of fun,and you get to color in a couple states on your map.:-D Good to see all went well on the GS.
Cheers
