Howdy from Calgary, Alberta

gascan · 10-04-2012, 11:27 PM

I've been a fan of the Nomad for a good 4+, thanks to VBA members and good friends Canuckrider, Hammer, and Duffy. I've been riding a Suzuki C50 for 5 years, but until a recent close encounter with a van I was reasonibly happy with the C50. Now that she's been written off, I'm on the market and I'm seriously looking for a Nomad to fill the spot in my garage. Looking at Rotorboy's from Tucson, just trying to figure out how I can get it 1300 miles this time of year and avoid the white fluffy stuff in the process.

Anyways, glad to finally be a member, and looking forward to getting back in the saddle ASAP.

cheers!

Welcome aboard gascan!

Hmmm, wondering how you came up with that handle???

Good luck with the search for a Nomad. I'd sell you mine if I weren't so darn happy with it. (Plus the fact that if I went shopping for a new bike at the moment I'd probably end up divorced!)

Welcome, I waited 12 years to get my Nomad..........

Welcome Tracy........... getting that Nomad from Tucson to Calgary is easy. Ship it to my house and I'll store it until spring. Or just buy my Classic and I'll go buy that Vaquero that my wife liked.

Another welcome from Calgary and good luck in your Nomad quest.

Welcome from N. Vancouver, B.C. I also upgraded from C50 to Nomad. It was a substantial move. Good luck with your search!
