Hello from Hound

It's been suggested I say hi and introduce myself. First, thanks for the welcome - especially from you guys in North Carolina and Wyoming. I dipped a wheel in N.Carolina last June and Wyoming in '04 on separate trips. Gorgeous states both. I consider 2004, my first year of riding, the best year of my life. I can remember climbing those switch-backs on Hwy 14/14A in Wyoming like it was yesterday.

Fox and I are from Manitoba Canada in a little village near the Can/Us border. I'm a junior senior (don't collect a pension but getting some price breaks). I jumped on my first bike ('82 Honda 750 Magna) in the summer of 2003 and have not looked back. I got the 2003 Nomad in May of 2004 and have accumulated 62,152 Kilometers (38,845 mi) on it. I have been to the US three times; two solo and one with Fox and have absolutely loved the experience each occasion. Great folks, great riding, and great roads!
