Hello from Baltimore!

[Biker-Dave]

Hey there folks, I got my first trike a few months ago. Before my run in with an over zealous Dodge truck owner, I road an "08" Buell Ulysses, and an "06" Ultra classic. Now I Am tooling around on a 2001 Ultra classic trike with a leman kit, and a pingle shifter. My little run in cost me my left leg above the knee. I am not sure when the bike was converted, close to 2002 or so. I got the bike from the second owner, who did none of the conversion work. I am hoping to find some answers in here dealing with breaks, right hand shifters, and front end rake.
I love to ride, it is what helped keep me focused while I was in the hospital. The second question my Buddy ask me as soon as I could talk was, "you going to ride again" I croked out a very positive " Hell yea"

I look foward to sharing by adventures with you, as well as reading about yours. Thanks, Biker-Dave

Got the info for the rally, thanks. Looks like the campground is the way for me. I have a small class A motorhome that I use to travel in. Makes things easy for me.

Welcome aboard. Glad everything is well with you. I'm glad you decided to get back on the bike. It's like war. You get wounded, they patch you up, then you're back in action. Great decision you made about riding again. If it is your passion to ride, continue with it. God Bless you with your new trike.

Welcome to the website. Our trike club has a couple of members from the Baltimore area. One of them is going to Maggie Valley for the Rally along with a few others from different areas of Maryland. You're welcome to hook up with us. Send me a PM if you're interested.

 

[Biker-Dave]

Thanks for the offer. I am hoping to be able to take the time off to go the rally. If we do go I'll be driving down in the motorcoach, dragging the bikes behind. I have found it works so much better for me then staying in a motel.

Cool. Our current plan is to leave Wednesday, stop overnight, arrive Thursday, leave Sunday, stay overnight and arrive back in MD on Monday. That splits the trip into two easy-to-digest halves. We're also bringing a car for the spouses who want to go but don't want to ride all the way.

We seem to be getting interest from some local trikers who are not members of our club about going to the Rally. As far as we're concerned, the more the merrier. ThumbUp

Welcome Biker-Dave
I am a Stallion rider and looking for a way
to trailer my trike. I used to ride two wheelers
but after an incident with a dog and luckily walked
away with minor injuries, my wife was not happy for
me to get back on but loves our Stallion.

We don't drag our bikes, they have the best of the best ride! LOL Kidding with you. We love the toyhauler, as you said it does make things much eaiser.:wave4:
